you should be usign SaveFileDialog not OpenFileDialog to pick name of a image that u want to save but like steve said pls include error message.

I didn't mean to delete the one you had in the Open method. I meant for you to add the same thing in the SAVE method. That is the one where you did not allow the user to actually select the file to save to.

A note to everyone that posts a message asking for help when getting an Error Message: PLEASE INCLUDE THE MESSAGE!!! That makes it a whole lot easier to pinpoint the problem and avoids the inevitable delay of someone responding only to ask What message are you getting? In this case I am going to guess that your problem is related to the fact that fdlg.FileName is null because you did not do the if(fdlg.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK) . Was I close?
