Errors using Django Awesome Avatar

Have been trying to solve an issue using Django awesome avatar. I have used the AvatarField() in my models to save the profile pic in the UserProfile model.

avatar = AvatarField(upload_to=upload_profile, width=100, height=100,default = 'profiles/profile.jpg',)

Have also used a ModelForm to render the field to a form that is shown on the templates

avatar = avatar_forms.AvatarField()

When I try to access the user profile in admin and save, it throws an error:

'ImageFieldFile' object has no attribute '__getitem__'

Also, when I select a photo on the form in template, it does not show the crop tool that am supposed to use to resize the image.

Are you trying to access the file name?

You should use something like this:

def __unicode__(self):
    return unicode(self.image_location)

source: Django image field throws TypeError
