This article describes how to manipulate images in PyS60.

import appuifw, e32
from graphics import *
 
#Define the exit function:
app_lock=e32.Ao_lock()
def quit():app_lock.signal()
appuifw.app.exit_key_handler=quit
 
#We open the image
img=Image.open("C:\\i.jpg")
 
#We can see its current size
print img.size
 
#Now we resize it:
img=img.resize((240,240), keepaspect=0)
#The target size is a tuple containing the new dimensions in pixles
#keepaspect is optional. If 1, the image's current aspect ratio is maintained
 
#The image can also be transposed (here we rotate it by 90 degrees)
img=img.transpose(ROTATE_90)
#Other ways of transposing are:
#FLIP_LEFT_RIGHT, FLIP_TOP_BOTTOM, ROTATE_180, ROTATE_270
#Note that rotations are counterclockwise
 
#Finally, we save the new image
img.save("C:\\i2.jpg", quality=100)
 
#Tell the application not to close until the user tells it to:
app_lock.wait()

Here is the result for the example above:

The initial image                                                                                                               The resulting image
