[ZA] Make the province list page more inviting

[zarino]

https://www.pa.org.za/place/is/province/ looks sad.

PMG are going to investigate whether they can legally use the province coats of arms as thumbnail images here, to replace the “push pin” placeholder images.

But in the meantime, is there anything else we can do to make this page more tantalising?

Meghan and Gaile fedback today that the only Legislature pictures they can access are very large 90x90, and wanted to check if you can work with pictures that big?

If you can’t, then let them know as they will have an internal discussion about an alternative :)

Megan has sent me some photos of the primary buildings in each legislature. I’m going to crop them down to squares.

In the meantime, @GeorgieBurr, a bit of digging has revealed that there’s actually a technical blocker to getting these images in place – #2496 – so we’ll need to make a decision on that before this ticket can be dealt with.

#2496 has been fixed, so places can now have images associated with them in the same way as people and orgs.

As a bonus it turns out that the place list item template already handles generating a thumbnail, so you can add an images to a province and it will automatically show up on the list of provinces:

Lines 4 to 12 in 7e51001

	{% thumbnail object.primary_image "90x90" crop="center" as im %}
	<a href="{{ object.get_absolute_url }}">
	<img src="{{ im.url }}" width="{{ im.width }}" height="{{ im.height }}"/>
	</a>
	{% empty %}
	<a href="{{ object.get_absolute_url }}">
	<img src="{% static 'images/place-90x90.jpg' %}" />
	</a>
	{% endthumbnail %}

I've now uploaded these images to the individual places, so the province list page now shows place thumbnails.
