I don't want to try to get your code working because I know nothing
about Python, I know it is a good language.  The other reason I'm not
happy using it is that it adds another layer of software to a solution
that should work on its own.


I have still been unable to get the following to work.

(define (script-fu-create-thumb filename)
  (let* ((img 0))
    ;; car needed here because gimp functions return values as lists
    (set! img (car (gimp-file-load 1 filename filename)))
     (gimp-file-save-thumbnail img filename)))

(script-fu-register "script-fu-create-thumb"
                    "<Toolbox>/Xtns/Script-Fu/Utils/Thumbnail..."
                    "Thumbnail Image"
                    "Marty Bradley"
                    "Marty Bradley"
                    "Dec 2007"
                    ""
                    SF-FILENAME "Image Name" " ")



Any other pointers would be gladly accepted.

regards,
Martin.
