Is it possible to send picture with text with iMessage from my App with iOS 6.1?

Question

Someone already asked it in 2011: iPhone:send image+text to iMessage from my own app, but maybe there exists now a way of doing it. Does someone know some news about this topic? Thanks!

No, there is still no way to send multimedia via MFMessageComposeViewController.

MFMessageComposeViewController is the only authorised way to access the compose screen from 'Messages', and the documentation still clearly says:

Sending multimedia messages with this class is not supported

The camera icon typically found in the Messages app does not exist in this standalone view controller, meaning any form of multimedia (bar text) cannot be sent.
