more can be found by substituting the filename in the URLs with
"medium.jpg"

The ``thumbnail`` size images are never corrupted.

Marking this for 0.0.5 even though I know we'll roll it for 0.0.6
most likely ;)

As said on IRC, the problem was that cloudfiles did not implicitly
append the contents of a write().

Those ``medium.jpg`` files that were affected were those who PIL
did buffered writes for.

I solved this in
https://github.com/jwandborg/mediagoblin/tree/cloudfiles\_storage\_object\_wrapper
. It now does a check if the file object has a size, if so, it
appends the new data to any existing data and then writes it all.

Please review and merge.

Cheers,

This solution seems a bit curious, but it looks like it works, so I
merged it. I also added a bit to the docs explaining that there was
buffering happening on both ends, and that was related to the
corruption (not a thorough description, but decent enough for
now).

I'm not sure we need this class inside a class stuff. It looks like
we don't to me, so I removed it from there and moved it into its
own class.

Anyway! Merged, and closed. Thanks for the sleuthing on this one,
Joar! :)
