Cheers. Yep unfortunately I'm working in a regular web based flex app now and I wanted it so that it would create images on the users desktop in the folder and then dynamically set the source of an image component to these images so the user can preview the image they've just created within the app itself but I guess that's not possible and I'll have to leave out the preview bit. :-(
