email a sprite

it is possible to email a sprite (which has been recoloured using C2 commands) from within c2?

I would assume you would need to take care of that using php.

Yes, for security reasons, you can't send mail via Javascript alone...

I have no problem emailing using PHP.

The problem is how am I going to "save out" the sprite which has been recoloured by the user, from C2?

html5 offers the option to access an image on the canvas as a data uri, and this includes any transformations made to it -- you can send this uri to a php script and have it processed by gd or imagemagick and saved as an actual image on the server, then maybe attached by mail.

Alternatively, you could just send someone the uri and they could open it in their browser and save it from there.

Very interesting info twdead, thanks a lot.

i will have to research that as i am pretty very new to canvas & c2

this might help you out:

I suppose that the main problem will be to get some specific sprites. The whole c2 canvas to image should be possible - I've seen similar implemented for a canvas.

Yes Joe, the problem is how to get a selected number of sprites, or at least, a section of the screen
