Create new controllers that way:

from turbogears import controllers, expose, ...

class ImageController(controllers.Controller):
    @expose(...)
    def create(self, ...):
        ...

Then, have an instance of it as member variable in your root controller, i.e.:

class Root(controllers.RootController):
    images = ImageController()
    ...

Now you can access the very first class' method create via /images/create.
Controllers can contain other controllers. That way you can build hierarchies.
