I'm writing an app that needs to manage its own images.  That is, it
should only be able to pick, send, delete etc. the images that it
generated.

Reading through the Dev Guide, it seems that using the
MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage call is the way that I should be
inserting images.  I tried this, and it writes files and thumbs out
fine, but there are a few problems with this:

1)  It always puts the images in /sdcard/dcim (I don't see a way to
control the output location)
2)  Using the pick intent for image/* opens a full view of camera pics
and pics from my app.
3)  InsertImage saves everything as a 50% quality JPEG
4)  If I do 'hack' in a PNG, the pictures app blows up

Sorry for the long winded explanation, but the question is here:

Can I use any of the default provider framework to work off of a
custom directory, or am I pretty much stuck writing my own picker,
image provider, and thumnail provider?  I'm fairly new to Android, so
I'm hoping that I'm missing something simple here :)

Thanks in advance!
