Then that's all you need. Let the template handle the image rendered:
EMO_CHOICES = (
('smiley_sad.png', 'sad sad emo'),
('smiley_neutral.png', 'ask me later'),
('smiley_happy.png', 'happy happy joy joy'),
)

in template:
{% load static %}
...


And of course you can dress it up as Ivan showed, but the basic
principles are the same.

Use Choice field with image in the option. You do not need FIleField,
couse you don't operate with files at all. You just want to put an
image in a select.

There are several ways to achieve this:
background image (pure html+css)

Jquery UI;
or something like this:

Django Models: How to allow users to select an image from a choice of 3 pictures

[croberts]

I am familiar with the use of Field.choices for text.

However, I'd like the same option for images.  Is this possible?  I want 
users to select one image from a list of 3 and be able to save this.  They 
can later come back in and change it if they wish.  I know that in order to 
save this, it must be in Models.

The idea:

Each day, the has the option of selecting an image: happy face, sad face, 
smiley face of how they are feeling.  Their selection is saved.  They can 
go in later to change it if they wish.

ImageField doesn't seem to do this.  It seems to only allow for uploaded 
images as opposed to a choice.
