FOr some more information: I did try to add the intent to an
"receiver" in the manifest XML on a tip i got, but this not only
didn't work to start my receiver class, it also removed the "share"
option from the image i was trying to do something with... So not so
big a succes.
I'm sure it's a small thing i've missed (i hope ;) ), so if anyone can
point me towards how what where?

  <activity android:name=".TestingApp"
            android:label="@string/app_name">
      <intent-filter>
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
          <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
      </intent-filter>
  </activity>
  <receiver android:name=".ImageReceiver">
     <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <data android:mimeType="image/*" />
        </intent-filter>
  </receiver>
</application>
