Okay, so my objective is as follows:
I need to create a 200x200px PNG filled with one solid color (I have the hex for the color) and get the URI for this image so I can pass it to an Intent for being shared to any service supporting images.
How do I got about this?

The second example on this wiki for pngj explains how to create a solid color file using this library. It's small and fast it looks like. Might be the piece you're looking for.
