Rails - Feb 2006 - File Column

Has anyone any experiance with the FileColumn plugin. I''m trying to 
create thumbnails, and also alow non picture uploads. Here''s some 
working code, but if I try and upload a zip, it says ''File invalid 
image''. Is there anyway of having both image uploads (and thumbnail 
generation) while also allowing non image uploads?

class Entry < ActiveRecord::Base
  validates_presence_of   :name, :file
  validates_uniqueness_of :name
file_column :file, :magick => {
          :versions => { "thumb" => "50x50",
"medium" => "640x480>" }
        }
end

Use a different model for the zip file
OR
Use a different column for the zip file.

file_column :file, :magick => {
          :versions => { "thumb" => "50x50",
"medium" => "640x480>" }
        }

That basically says that you will resize that file, no matter what type
it is. So you''ll need to use a different column or model.

Or you could catch the exception thrown and ignore it :) *HACK*
