How to change storage in template?

[SmileyChris]

There's no need to specify the storage used in the template - that's behind-the-scenes data which a template shouldn't have to worry about.

If you're just interested in getting the url of the image, {{ obj.image.url }} will do it, of course. Is there something else I'm missing?

My MEDIA_URL points to external server, that serves static files.

Also I have special storage for uploaded files, that are stored in /var/uploads/

When I use easy-thumbnails in template:
{% thumbnail item.image 100x100 %}

I getting '/static/image_file.jpg_100x100_g85.jpg' instead of '/uploads/image_file.jpg_100x100_g85.jpg'

Images from my field are stored in:
/var/uploads/...

But thumbnails goes to MEDIA_ROOT:
/myprojectdir/media/...

How can I tell easy-thumbnails to store thumbnails to same directory as described in imagefield's storage?

Oh, right. There are two ways.

1. Use the easy-thumbnail ThumbnailerImageField: http://github.com/SmileyChris/easy-thumbnails/blob/74fe238da3922a96b70773d5e9fc99425cecb69b/docs/usage.txt#L61
2. Use the provided setting to change the default thumbnail storage location for your project: http://github.com/SmileyChris/easy-thumbnails/blob/master/docs/ref/settings.txt#L20
