ImportError: cannot import name Faker #10

I did a fresh install and was actually able to generate some Users, but then after trying to run a python script outside of the console, something went wrong and it doesn't work again. This error message isn't very helpful to me :frowning:

Any ideas? I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and doing exactly what I did to make it work before, but still got the following. 

Python 2.7.5+ (default, Feb 27 2014, 19:37:08) 
[GCC 4.8.1] on linux2
>>> from django_faker import Faker
>>> populator = Faker.getPopulator()

Hey @BrendanBerkley , Why don't you use Faker library which is there on pypi.org. it's really cool and have a good documentation. Happy coding :-)
