What is "localhost"? Directory or URL? If this is URL, use '/', not '\'. :-)

So the solution is here and it goes like:-

public void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DialogResult ds = folderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog();
if (ds == DialogResult.OK)
{
string[] str=Directory.GetFiles(folderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath) ;
foreach (string fname in str)
{
if(fname.IndexOf(".jpg")>0)
{
PictureBox img=new PictureBox();
img.Width = 200;
img.Height = 400;
img.Image = Image.FromFile(fname);
flowLayoutPanel1.Controls.Add(img);
}
}
}

}

And now map your drive to the server. :-)
