Prepare image usage

[Jim sims]

Hi Gerry,

Thank you for your patience on this.
Am a bit new to iOS - an ios newbie with limited exposure to this.  Been
away from this tech world a while.

So i can use: get URL tFile and then save to a folder inside the ipad app.

Like the example in the dictionary for specialfolderpath("cache")

Then refer to that path for setting the filename.

That what you mean?

TIA
sims
