Works the same but with less code and looks better. You know if I am saving it as a png file do I have to export it from the database as a png?

you mean no error now ?

yes...png is best format.

Hi, that code looks OK. BTW: The PictureBox serves no purpose except it gives some size. If your image happens to be zero*zero pixels, it could still work, whereas maybe PictureBox.Image (and hence the original code) would not work, I don't know. I avoid PictureBoxes, they tend to cause more trouble than what they are worth. :)

like ? I never got any problem with PB. I use BackgroundImage instead.

Hi, I paint my images myself, typically onto a Panel. That avoids problems such as: - I want my pictures to preserve aspect ratio while being rescaled - I want to select pixels with the mouse, even when the image has been rescaled - I want to be able to draw a rubber band, even when the image has been rescaled etc. All of these are either impossible or much harder than they deserve to be when using a PB. The one thing I would consider using it for is for displaying an animated image (multiTIFF and the like). :)

well, If you're a pro programmer then you should use the appropriate control. PB is for pictures and panel for containing other controls. Am I wrong...? All the operations you're doing with Panel can be done with PB but since Panel is more powerful in itself, its not good to compare with PB. Its like byte(PB) and int(Panel).

I agree with both of you. I am not a Pro Programmer (yet :-) lol), but I see the advantages of both. One, I know how to use a picturebox (well I thougth I did before this issue, but it seems to be a little bug), and I do not know how to paint pictures at ALL. I would like to learn it, and I think I might try the panel way to just test it out. Not really sure where to begin so I will google painting image on panel

Hi, there are lots of articles that demonstrate how to paint things. My Sokoban article is a simple example, the playing board actually is a Panel. :)

Yes, when available.

A PB can hold other controls as well. So it is doing (or trying to do) more than what a Panel does. When not containing other Controls, a Panel is just like a piece of canvas, ideal for painting and drawing whatever you want. :)

aye aye but not like panel...you have to add programmatically.

aha but no support for gif ;) but no worries, this is end of discussion

Now I take it you can not only write an image to a panel, but you can retrieve an image from it?
simple drawing method Draw image and set it to global variable. Then in OnPaint() draw that image. In this way, you can have image anytime. But if you just want to set a single image from file or stream, I'll suggest you to use BackgoundImage property. No coding required. Plus you can use styles, Tiles, Center, Zoom...etc

Hi Jacob, first of all, if you have code to paint/draw something (that is a "Paint handler" which is called automatically with a "Graphics" parameter), you have all the information and the same code could be used to draw onto another Graphics object, e.g. one you obtain from Bitmap.CreateGraphics(). Furthermore there is a Control.DrawToBitmap() method available for all Controls, it creates a bitmap showing the Control the way it looks on screen. Since a Panel does not draw anything by itself, Panel.DrawToBitmap() paints your own content to the bitmap, which is quite handy. :)
