Best thing is that you can:

if img and img.meta_type == 'Image':
    pilImg = PIL.Image.open( StringIO(str(img.data)) )
elif imgData:
    pilImg = PIL.Image.open( StringIO(imgData) )

try:
    pilImg.load()
except IOError:
    pass # You can always log it to logger

pilImg.thumbnail((width, height), PIL.Image.ANTIALIAS)

As dumb as it seems - it will work like a miracle. If your image has missing data, it will be filled with gray (check the bottom of your image).

Note: usage of camel case in Python is discouraged and is used only in class names.
