Title Body

am trying yo do this using tornado and pil and mongodb. avat = self.request.files['avatar'][0]["body"] nomfich = self.request.files['avatar'][0]["filename"] try: image = Image.open(StringIO.StringIO(buf=avat)) size = image.size type = image.format avatar = r"/profile-images/{0}/{1}".format(pseudo, nomfich) except IOError: self.redirect("/erreur-im") and the database code: user={ "pseudo": pseudo, "password":password, "email":email, "tel":tel, "commune":commune, "statut":statut, "nom":nom, "prenom":prenom, "daten":daten, "sexe":sexe, "avatar":avatar } self.db.essog.insert(user) and it worked ok, the "avatar" is saved, but there in no image, it saves only a name! my problem is: to understand how database deals with pictures, must i make image.save(path, format), but the path, is it a path of a normal system path (windows, or linux)? the profile is simple, and i've limited the picture upload to 500ko, and the document in mongodb is 16mb, so the document will handle the entire profile, but must i use gridFS even for small document when it contains picture? the key problem is in path of the picture saving, am stuck, and it's the first time i deal with database, so am sorry for that question.
