Image/bitmap returning Web Service

[Imran Hayat]

Hello! I'm trying to create a Web Service where the user supplies a
filename of an image file (gif or jpg) and the Web Service returns
that image rotated 90 degrees to the user. (Of course it returns it as
a SOAP/Base64 encoded xml output to the user)

Would this be possible to do? I'm just trying to get started and I
can't even create a Web Service that allows me to import the
System.Drawing namespace. Any ideas how this may be possible?

Thanks in advance.

It is better to use DIME attachments for this purpose.

Why you can't?
I did this very easy. You have to append System.Drawing.dll from the
cache and then write using System.Drawing. After these things you can
use any object from this namespace.
