Custom images... is it possible?

So I have this use case and I'm not sure if it's possible so I thought I'd toss it out here.

I need to allow the user to provide a custom image within my game. The way we've been operating is only using resources found in our data/images folder but I was thinking I might be able to capture image data somehow and store it in user space, then load it if it exists.

Is this even possible in iTorque?

Some discussion about loading custom images from a URL here: www.garagegames.com/community/forums/viewthread/109953/

I believe there is a resource allowing camera and photo library access in iT2D but I can't find it at the moment.

That should do what you need.
