Retrive Image shown on an image control

Question

In my current web application, I am using a generic handler to retrieve an image from SQL 2005 db and display it on an image control (asp.net 3.5, vb). At a later stage, I want to retrieve the same image shown on the image control and store it in another sql2005 db. In between the user might also change image. I want to retrieve whatever image is shown on the image control.
How can I achieve this?

I think you can retrieve ImageUrl from ImageControl. Retrieve it and store in database

These article should get you going:
Image Handling In ASP.NET[^]
Storing Binary Files Directly in the Database[^]

At any given time, either you have the image url or the image binary. Use either to process and store.

So, it means that when I use ImageUrl property, the generic handler will render the same image, which I can convert to a Byte array and store in the database. Is it correct?

Yes, it should be like that. Do confirm me too once you try.

I am not able to get the image in bytearray from the generic handler. Any thoughts?
