Custom django-admin templates

I've got a model, and my instance called "show_user_image":

class user_image(models.Model):
  title = models.CharField(max_length=50)
  img = models.imageField(upload_to='/home/blabla')

  def show_user_image(self):
    return u'<img src="%s" />' % self.img.url
  show_user_image.short_description = 'User image'
  image_img.allow_tags = True

off course i can use it at my admin list:

list_display = ('title', 'show_user_image')

And my question is: how to use this instance in the edit form?

Something like here: http://new-media.djangobook.com/content/en/1.0/chapter17/book_extra.png

{% extends "admin/change_form.html" %}

{% block form_top %}
  <p>Insert meaningful help message here...</p>
{% endblock %}

but i want:

{% extends "admin/change_form.html" %}

{% block form_top %}
  {{ MY-INSTANCE-HERE }}
{% endblock %}

I just need to image display above the form.

Thanks! John.

The form is admin template is available via adminform.form variable. Your field is named img, so it will be like this (untested):

{% block form_top %}
   <img src="{{ adminform.form.img.value }}"/>
{% endblock %}

BTW. Class names in python should use CapitalizedWordsNamingConvention, according to official style guide. You should name the model UserImage instead of user_image.

BTW2: show_user_image is a method, not an instance.
