See how this works. I'm not sure of your process but if you can send the URL of the image to the phone so it knows where to download from you can then use the following example.

I've also accomplished establishing a HTTP connection and sending strings back and forth between the server and app. So now I want to send an image from my server to the app with a HTTP connection. GCM does not accomplish this. I hope this cleared up what I'm trying to do. Suggestions?
