Image in database is simply binary data. In your SQL data types there is a special data type[^], image (or binary). This is used to store such type of data, for this sake you would convert the file to binary (FileStream[^] would help you out in this one). Then to retrieve the same file again you would use the streams and convert the binary data back to file, by providing a meta tag ("image/jpg").

Have a look at this: Why do I get a "Parameter is not valid." exception when I read an image from my database?[^] it may help.
