The error says that your view is not returning any HttpResponse. There is one case that it’s possible – 

def user_profile(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = ImageForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
        if form.is_valid()  and form.is_multipart():
            new_user = save_file(request.FILES['image'])
            return HttpResponse(new_user)
# ------^
# There is not else check. It's possible that the if condition is False.
# In that case your view is returning nothing.
    else:
        form = ImageForm()
        return render_to_response('user_profile.html', { 'form': form })

Regarding that error, the problem is in your view: if your form is invalid, you are not returning a response to the client: 

def user_profile(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
    form = ImageForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
    if form.is_valid():
        new_user = save_file(request.FILES['image'])
        return HttpResponse(new_user)
else:
    form = ImageForm()

# *** Unindented
return render_to_response('user_profile.html', { 'form': form })

also (I don’t have much experience with file uploads) but I don’t think you need the is_multipart check – it may be causing your form to appear invalid.
