At the same time store the Image path in the database. when u r retriving the images just take image control and assign the image path from the database. u have input type = file in html right. using that we can upload and save in to the database.

You need to create one folder in your application named Images and store all the images in this folder. Now in your table add one column named Image_Url and save the path of each image. now in your .aspx page take one Image control and in the ImageUrl property bind the column. For example 'To upload an Image you need to use FileUpload control. and use saveas property to save that image in your application folder.Hope this can help you.

What I understand from your question is that you have the image content in your data base and wants to read it from there and show it to web page.

If I am right in my perception then a simple solution would be as follows.

Setup a virtual directory and give it necessary write permission for (Network Service if u r using unauthorized access. otherwise for the user under which you application runs in windows authentication mode).

Read the image content from the database into a byte array (byte[]). Now create a filestream object with a new filename targeting the early mentioned folder. Now write your array to the stream. Flush the stream and dispose it. Now you can easily build relative/absolute url for that file and bind it to your image control in your page.
