Question

I have this Code to Save a Pic to my Solution Explorer Images Folder.
private void btnUploadImage_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//The String used to store the location of the file that is currently loaded in the picture box picFile
String location;
//The String used to store the name of the file that is currently loaded in the picture box picFile
String fileName;
ofdImageUpload.Filter = "JPeg Image|*.jpg|Bitmap Image|*.bmp|Gif Image|*.gif";
//Showing the fileopen dialog box
ofdImageUpload.ShowDialog();
//showing the image opened in the picturebox
imgCapture.Image = new Bitmap(ofdImageUpload.FileName);
//storing the location of the pic in variable
location = ofdImageUpload.FileName;
txtImgLocation.Text = location;
//storing the filename of the pic in variable
fileName = ofdImageUpload.SafeFileName;
//pictureboxImage.Image.Save();
imgCapture.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.StretchImage;
if (imgCapture.Image != null)
{
lblHiddenMsg.Text = "";
}
}
private void InsertGatepassEntry(int RowId)
{
string ContName = txtContName.Text.Trim();
string ContAdd = richtxtContAddress.Text.Trim();
string VisitorName = txtEmpName.Text.Trim();
string VisitorAdd = txtEmpAddress.Text.Trim();

string VisitorBloodGrp = comboxBloodGroup.SelectedText.Trim();
string VisitorIssueDate = dtpEmpDateOfIssue.Text.Trim();
string imagename = ofdImageUpload.SafeFileName;
if (imagename != null || imagename != "") //Check If image is Selected from Computer's Hard Drive
{
if (imgCapture.Image != null)
{
//string imagepath = ofdImageUpload.FileName;
//string picname = imagepath.Substring(imagepath.LastIndexOf('\\'));
string picname = imagename;
string path = Application.StartupPath.Substring(0, Application.StartupPath.LastIndexOf("bin"));
Bitmap imgImage = new Bitmap(imgCapture.Image); //Create an object of Bitmap class/
//string fullPathName = path + "Images" + picname;
imgImage.Save(path + "Images\\" + txtEmpName.Text + txtEsi.Text + ".jpg");
string Image = "Images\\" + txtEmpName.Text + txtEsi.Text + ".jpg";
string GatepassNo = LoadLastGatepassNo();
switch (Contractor.InsertGatepassEntry(RowId, ContName, ContAdd, VisitorName, VisitorAdd, VisitorFathersName, VisitorAge, VisitorEsi, VisitorContact, VisitorBloodGrp, VisitorIssueDate, Image, GatepassNo))

Answer 1

To resize your image use:
public static Image resizeImage(Image imgToResize, Size size)
{
return (Image)(new Bitmap(imgToResize, size));
}
yourImage = resizeImage(yourImage, new Size(250,250));

Answer 2

hi you can add the "Size" class as a parameter of your Bitmap constructor to resize the image
i did for you this function to make it easy hope that will help you
public static Image resizeImage(Image imgToResize, Size size)
{
return (Image)(new Bitmap(imgToResize, size));
}
yourImage = resizeImage(yourImage, new Size(250,250));
