I think PIL is a really nice library, so easy to use, although a bit lean.
About a year ago I played around with JAI (Java Imaging), before giving up
on Java and switching to Python. And my experience with JAI was that it was
a major pain in the butt. In comparison, PIL is a pleasure to work with. So
anyone who wants to improve PIL, I think its great.
