I'm trying to crop an image and then paste the cropped image into the centre of another image. Ideally I'd like the cropped image to be smaller than the image its being pasted on so that there is a border around the pasted image but I don't know if that's possible.
Here's what I've tried (along with the resulting error message):
>>> import Image
>>> grey = Image.new('RGB', (200, 200), "grey")
>>> House = Image.open("House01.jpg")
>>> print grey.size, grey.mode, grey.format
>>>(200, 200) RGB None
>>> print House.size, House.mode, House.format
>>>(300, 300) RGB JPEG
>>> box = (25, 25, 25, 25)
>>> House.crop(box)
>>>Image._ImageCrop image mode=RGB size=0x0 at 0x11AD210>
>>> region = House.crop(box)
>>> region.show()
>>>Traceback (most recent call last):

>>> File "C:Python26libsite-packagesPILImageFile.py", line 498, in _save
e.setimage(im.im, b)
>>>SystemError: tile cannot extend outside image
I can see that the 'region' size has been made (0,0) but I can't understand why.
Any help on this would be great thanks
