You could take a 'screenshot', but ONLY of whats running inside your
particular instance of flash.

The only problem is, there is no image compression routines built into
flash. Also there are issues with sending raw data to the server. So
the screen capture first of all would be pretty slow (you have to read
each pixel one at a time), and then the data to upload would be pretty
big (several megabytes...unless you implemented PNG compression in
actionscript or something)
