Only if you apply it on a square image.

Not sure how you're rounding things here, but PIL's thumbnail method 
does indeed preserve the aspect ratio:

 >>> from PIL import Image
 >>> im = Image.new("RGB", (500, 635))
 >>> im.size
(500, 635)
 >>> im.thumbnail((250, 250))
 >>> im.size
(197, 250)

 >>> im = Image.new("RGB", (625, 500))
 >>> im.size
(625, 500)
 >>> im.thumbnail((250, 250))
 >>> im.size
(250, 200)
 >>>
