Answer 2

yes it's a good idea to use. I recommend flask if it's a small site. If it's important then go with what you know but otherwise if it's for learning I say stick with python (or something else like ruby on rails or a JavaScript backend)

Answer 3

use the Pillow fork, S.K.LURK

Answer 4

flask and Django for templates and databases. But what about images ? (my website uses PHP GD library)

Answer 5

python imaging library (PIL) is great for image manipulation.

Answer 6

if you look for up-to-date support check Python Pillow its a PIL fork.

Answer 7

you're right. I have 20 years experience with PHP, and large websites. Re-starting from scratch with python is probably hasardous in this case.

Answer 8

in case you find pythons libraries matching your image processing needs ill suggest creating a seperate service only to deal with image processing.

Answer 9

is PIL still supported? no update since 2009 :-/

Answer 10

so, is it a good Idea to make website with python? or is classic PHP a better choice?
