:py:mod:`~PIL.ImageOps` Module
==============================

The :py:mod:`~PIL.ImageOps` module contains a number of ‘ready-made’ image
processing operations. This module is somewhat experimental, and most operators
only work on L and RGB images.

        # but will modify the image object in place
        im.thumbnail(size)
