Why don’t you try sorl-thumbnail. It has the exact same interface as the default ImageField django provides and it seems like it would be a lot nicer to work with than the roll-your-own support.

  • Storage support
  • Pluggable Engine support (PIL, pgmagick)
  • Pluggable Key Value Store support (redis, cached db)
  • Pluggable Backend support
  • Admin integration with possibility to delete
  • Dummy generation
  • Flexible, simple syntax, generates no html
  • ImageField for model that deletes thumbnails
  • CSS style cropping options
  • Margin calculation for vertical positioning

I had a similar problem, but in my case using sorl-thumbnail was not an option. I found that I can open an Image directly from S3BotoStorage by passing in a file descriptor instead of a path.

So instead of 

thumb = Image.open(self.image.path)

use 

thumb = Image.open(s3_storage.open(self.image.name))

Then you can process and save the new file locally as you were doing before.
