Trying to understand Django's sorl-thumbnail
how about adding some jCrop in the admin to specify area of thumbnail ? Woul be pretty cool :)
I have been playing around with sorl-thumbnail for Django. And trying to understand how it works better. 
I've read the guide for it, installed it in my site-packages, made sure PIL is installed correctly, put sorl.thumbnail in the INSTALLED APPS in my settings.py, put from sorl.thumbnail.fields import ImageWithThumbnailsField at the top in my models.py, added image = ImageWithThumbnailsField(upload to="images/", thumbnail={'size':(80, 80)}) as one of my model fields, passed the model through my view to the template, and in the template added {% load thumbnail %} at the top and put in the variable {{ mymodel.image.thumbnail_tag }} in there too.
But from what I understood is that when I upload an image through the admin, it would create the thumbnail straight away, but it only actually creates in when I see my template in the browser? Is this correct? The thumbnail shows fine, it looks great in fact, but I thought that adding the model field part of it would create the thumbnail instantly once the image has uploaded? ...Why not just use the models.ImageField in my model instead?
...or have I done this all OK and I've just got the way it works wrong?
