Thanks a lot for your reply, Franz. I shall try to use it in my case.
BTW, seems like I have reinvented the wheel... there is already the 
image viewhelper. I was just looking at documentation from flow3, 
instead of looking at the source code of fluid.

As for the StoreReadResponseViewHelper, it receives array of objects as 
an  argument, and outputs them as JSON response.
Of course I can rewrite this functionality in my own viewhelper, but I 
just want to know, what is the best way to do it?

@Dennis, how would you do it?

Dmitri.
