I'm sorry not having been clear enough. I just wanted to save the image 
when a user modify the model. To avoid a long delay for him, I wanted to 
use a fork.

But it seems this was not a good idea.

My solution is to remove the fork and let the user wait some seconds :-)

Thank you for all your explanations
