I have an WP8 app which allows the user to send there location data to anybody in their contact list. I need an option through which the user could send an image of their location via e-mail.

I have a map control in my app.

How do I get an image from the map control of the current location.

I don't want the screenshot of the entire app, just the location (or the map control).

Is there any way that I can do this from my app. Please help me on this.

1. The licenses of many map controls expressly prohibit taking screen shots of the map. 2. You can't add attachments to a mail message currently when using the Windows Phone sdk. – WiredPrairie Mar 09 '14 at 12:36
