Everything worked fine until I added:

process_in_background :avatar - to my model.

I'm using S3 to store the images and I am using cropping as suggested by
Ryan Bates in Railcasts Episode 182. After adding delayed_paperclip I am
getting an error. It is weirdly pointing to this method:

def avatar_geometry(style = :original)
@geometry https://github.com/geometry ||= {}
avatar_path = (avatar.options[:storage] == :s3) ? avatar.url(style) :
avatar.path(style)
@geometry https://github.com/geometry[style] ||=
Paperclip::Geometry.from_file(avatar_path)
end

But the method works fine when I comment out process_in_background :avatar
and I am able to crop and reprocess. It's just that it wont delay the job
and takes 8-12 seconds. Is it throwing an error because the avatar_path
should be different when using delayed_paperclip?

Well, the cropping feature essentially needs a file from S3. The image is scaled down and shown in the cropping page. But because of delayed jobs it can't find the file as it hasn't been uploaded yet and that's why the error. So I need to do something else. Thanks though
