hi Arun if u want to store the image in the database other then doing the conversion to byte and back from byte. you can simply store the image name in the table name (i.e arun.jpg if the image name arun.jpg) and upload the image on server in a folder and when the that user logs in then u can directly give the link for the image in that folder.

Don't store the image in your database it takes lots of space and is costly too. So store the data on your server and save the link in the database. Convert 'myphoto: to varchar' instead of binary data. you just have to provide the selected data to image.ImageUrl. it really works
