Pillow bug?

[kai.peters at gmail.com]

Judging from the message archive, the image-sig list is (just about) dead?

Disclaimer: Am a newbie - so anything is possible


using 'RGB' works fine

    img = Image.new('RGB', (inktile[0], inktile[1]), bgcolor)   

using '1' or 'L' does not (see trace below)

    img = Image.new('L', (inktile[0], inktile[1]), bgcolor)   


I change nothing else but the first parameter. If I switch the 'L' back to 'RGB' it works again.


    img      = Image.new('L', (inktile[0], inktile[1]), bgcolor)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\PIL\Image.py", line 2015, in new
    return Image()._new(core.fill(mode, size, color))
TypeError: an integer is required

The docs say that '1' and 'L' are supported - something broken? Something I do not understand?

Thanks for any pointers,

Kai
