Technically all PIL is needed for is determining height, width and what 
not of the image. If you do not need it or can ask the user, then PIL is 
nice but not required. May take a little hacking, but it should be 
feasible to ignore the warning.

Another option is to see if imagemagick / graphicsmagick is installed 
and write a wrapper which uses that instead of PIL. Also feasible and 
should be relatively easy.
