Hi we do not save image in database , we save the only image path database, so you should be save your image in a folder, and its path in database, and for more information you can visit this url...Store or Save images in SQL Server[^]

       {
           try
           {
               OpenFileDialog dialog = new OpenFileDialog();

               dialog.Filter = "JPEG(*.jpeg)|*.jpeg|GIF(*.gif)|*.gif|PNG(*.Png)|*.png|AllFiles|*.*";
               if (dialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
               {
                   Fs = File.Open(dialog.FileName, FileMode.OpenOrCreate);
                   b = new Byte[Fs.Length];
                   Fs.Read(b, 0, b.Length);
                   Fs.Close();
                   IMG.Image = Image.FromFile(dialog.FileName);
               }
               else
               {
                   MessageBox.Show("Select Image", "Alert", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
               }
           }
           catch (Exception ex)
