the filter argument must be one the constants defined in
the Image module:

     im = im.resize((400,400), Image.NEAREST)

also note that NEAREST is the default, and that im.thumbnail
is usually a much faster way to create a thumbnail, especially
when the input files are large JPEG files...:

    im = Image.open('pd0001_contype.jpeg')
    im.thumbnail((400,400),'NEAREST')
    im.save('pd0001_contype.thumbnail', "JPEG")
