Hi all, It's bothered me for a long time that our image reading routines are hidden in scipy.misc. Here is a patch that implements image reading via the PIL array interface. Please let me know whether you like this or not. Regards Stéfan

Docstring of imread seems wrong: the fname input argument is not a PIL image, it is the filename of the input image. Also, I think you should fail gracefully if PIL is not installed. RIght now this will give a traceback that might surprise the user ('ImportError: no module named PIL'). My 2 cents, Gaël
