K, I double checked and tried it all out and Alok's proposed solution just isn't working on my machine (no idea why). I've tried copying the PIL and .pth file into the /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages directory and it doesn't work. Neither does soft linking them to the actual install location, which is /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/ Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/.
One thing I noticed, however, is that in the error I published above, teh /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages isn't in the path. That strikes me as odd. Is that odd? I'm pretty new to python/django/GAE, so my apologies if I'm coming across as a complete newb. Thanks for any and all received help. - ryan.
