Is it possible to directly post an image from AppGameKit to Facebook? I can only see a function to post a message with a link to a pic hosted somewhere else.

I would like to provide an option to post screenshot of the final ending screen before game over to Facebook. Of course, if I could do this for other social media platforms that would be a big plus.

This would be Android + iOS.

For example, in Android we can use intents to share data to any app (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, ...) on the device: https://developer.android.com/training/sharing/send.html

You can use the ShareImage( szFilename ) command, or you can upload the file to your server.

Brilliant! Thanks Johnny, ShareImage() is exactly the thing I was looking for..

So to post the screenshot I should do some rendering trickery with GetImage(), store the captured image to file, and then call ShareImage()?

Cool.
