put code in model or controller?

I have an Image model and controller.  I have code that draws stuff on
the image, resizes the image, etc.

Should that code go in the model or the controller?  And Why?

Thanks,
Joe

What does the application actually do though?  That''s key here.  The
model should have *all* the business logic of the application
contained within it.  So you can do things like:

* completely revamp the interaction model and keep your business logic.
* Script the application from shell scripts
* etc.

While I''m probably in the minority here,  in my view controllers are
throwaway.  They correspond to how you access your objects at present.
 But that may change.
