Ideas on the easiest way to pass a QC Structure from one .qtz composition to another using Kineme Network Tools?

I'm wanting to pass a multi-depth structure of some colours, strings, floats, indexes and booleans from one composition (which is a kind of controller app) to a second composition which does the display work and uses the values passed to influence the display.

Attached is the kind of structure I'm talking about, the text fields are just for font names… not too long. It uses Kineme Data Tools to make the structure.

Check out this sample composition: Send and receive images in a POST request

It demonstrates sending images, but you could send any Quartz Composer data type (string, structure, etc.).

Thanks Jaymie

Could I ask about another variation, how would you send an image to a webpage from QC and have the webpage display the image?
