If these are the steps you are trying to make happen, you might try saving the image to a temporary folder and then: MyImageControl.ImageUrl = MyTemporaryImagePath //also save MyTemporaryImagePath to the StateBag or other temporary string Then, when the user confirms that the image is correct, you can copy your temp image to a permanent folder and save the permanent path string to your database (personally, I wouldn't save the actual image to your database).    Report

Save the existance of the image in the data, with meaning full context like, "filename", "keywords" etc, but keep the image in your website. Websites are for file storage, databases are for data ( to be cross referenced and searched) just my 2 pence.    Report
