Hi Helder, I found this post that can be really helpful when I will
have to do my pixel operations:

http://www.rodgutierrez.com/blog/2008/07/how-to-create-a-rgba-cgimagere.html

I still have to find how to draw an CGImageRef in another one
regardless the current context, I'm still wondering if this is the
right approach.

I will look better in the documentation.


Thanks, chr
