    #
    # This is a usage of ThumbnailField.
    # You have to set ``patterns`` to generate thumbnails
    #
    thumbnail = ThumbnailField(_('thumbnail'), upload_to='img/thumbnails', null=True, blank=True, patterns={
            # Pattern Format:
            #   <Name>: (
            #   (<square_size>,),       # with defautl process_method
            #   (<width>, <height>,),   # with default process_method
            #   (<width>, <height>, <method or method_name>),
            #   (<width>, <height>, <method or method_name>, <method options>),
            #   )
            #
            # If Name is ``None`` that mean original image will be processed
            # with the pattern
            #
            # Convert original image to sepia and resize it to 800x400 (original
            # size is 804x762)
            None: ((None, None, 'sepia'), (800, 400, 'resize')),
            # Create 640x480 resized thumbnail as large.
            'large': ((640, 480, 'resize'),),
            # Create 320x240 cropped thumbnail as small. You can write short
            # pattern if the number of appling pattern is 1
            'small': (320, 240, 'crop', {'left': 0, 'upper': 0}),
            # Create 160x120 thumbnail as tiny (use default process_method to
            # generate)
            'tiny': (160, 120),
            #
            # These thumbnails are not generated while accessed. These can be
            # accessed with the follwoing code::
            #
            #   entry.thumbnail.large
            #   entry.thumbnail.small
            #   entry.thumbnail.tiny
            #
            #   # shortcut properties
            #   entry.thumbnail.large_file  # as entry.thumbnail.large.file
            #   entry.thumbnail.large_path  # as entry.thumbnail.large.path
            #   entry.thumbnail.large_url   # as entry.thumbnail.large.url
            #   entry.thumbnail.large.size  # as entry.thumbnail.large.size

How to use custom process method

Create your own custom process method like below:

from django.core.exceptions import ImproperlyConfigured
from thumbnailfield.process_methods import get_sepia_image
from thumbnailfield.process_methods import get_cropped_image

def get_sepia_and_cropped_image(img, width, height, **options):
    # do something with img
    img = get_sepia_image(img, None, None, **options)
    img = get_cropped_image(img, width, height, **options)
    return img
def _sepia_and_cropped_error_check(f, img, width, height, **options):
    # do some error check
    if 'left' not in options:
        raise ImproperlyConfigured(f, "'left' is required")
    if 'upper' not in options:
        raise ImproperlyConfigured(f, "'upper' is required")
# Apply error check function
# Error check is recommended if your process method required any options
# otherwise just forget about this.
get_sepia_and_cropped_image.error_check = _sepia_and_cropped_error_check

Use defined method in pattern like below:

# models.py
# ...
thumbnail = ThumbnailField('thumbnail', upload_to='thumbnails', patterns = {
        'large': (400, 500, get_sepia_and_cropped_image, {'left': 0, 'upper': 0})
    }
# ...

Or define the method in THUMBNAILFIELD_PROCESS_METHOD_TABLE and use as a string anme:

# settings.py
from thumbnailfield import DEFAULT_PROCESS_METHOD_TABLE
THUMBNAILFIELD_PROCESS_METHOD_TABLE = DEFAULT_PROCESS_METHOD_TABLE
THUMBNAILFIELD_PROCESS_METHOD_TABLE['sepia_and_crop'] = get_sepia_and_cropped_image

# models.py
# ...
thumbnail = ThumbnailField('thumbnail', upload_to='thumbnails', patterns = {
        'large': (400, 500, 'sepia_and_crop', {'left': 0, 'upper': 0})
    }
# ...
