Looks like it, if MS can serialize an Image so should Mono. Please fill a bug into bugzilla for this. But note that it's very likely that Mono and MS serialized images won't interoperate (different internal representation) and it's also a wasteful way to send the image. You should look at saving the image into a stream (e.g. as a PNG image), serialized the stream, then re-created the image from the stream on the other end. -- Sebastien Pouliot <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Blog: http://pages.infinit.net/ctech/ _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
