yeah, I think PIL stopped being developed in 2012 and that's why Pillow 
started.

I was using it to double check some things before I created the PDF.  
Just double checking that all the images were Grayscale or CMYK.  I 
don't think I can do that with the Scribus python commands.

I also was using it to calculate Total Area Coverage for CMYK images.  
Wasn't sure if I had the concept right but I was getting the same output 
I was getting from using ImageMagick on the command line.  It's just 
nicer to be able to do that from within Scribus.

I was using it to do some image stuff.  Maybe I have the right idea of just adding it to the path? ;)
