Create an instance of the class and call getQualifiedClassName() on it. Or use describeType() on the Class object. The former is probably faster.

If I do toString() I get [class HeaderImage1]. Do I just have to extract the string from that?

I have a list class that takes an array of Class objects to allow a user to select a template (the renderer creates an instance of the class). When I click an item in the list I want to call a static function on the Template. When I have a Class object is there anyway of calling a static function on that class without creating an instance of the class?
