Can't use width_field= and height_field= options

[akaihola]

Is there any work-around to get image dimensions automatically into the model like stock Django does with the width_field= and height_field= options?

Hi, there is currently no workaround for this. Currently we just proxy the fields, and use whatever they have available. Not all backends support these tags. We could implement this missing feature within django-any-imagefield however, so no matter what backend you use, the feature will work (hence marking as "enhancement").

For my projects, I wrap all images in a sorl.thumbnail tag, to restrict the size at the frontend. This could also be a usable workaround, as SORL will store/cache the width and height fields for you.
