Upload TIFF images to MS SQL server

OK Here it goes: <br><br>I'am currently developing a Image Database. <br><br>I'am developing in ASP.NET (C#) using Visual Studio .NET <br><br>The current DEMO works like this <br><br>1. User fills out a form containing Image info such as Title, photographer, date and so on, and selects the file. The form is submitted <br>2. The server is controlling whether the submitted data is of content-type image/* (image/gif, image/jpeg, image/bmp etc.) <br>If contenttype is passed as beeing an image thumbnial is genereated using getThumbnailImage() funktion and original and thumbnail image is saved to the SQL database <br><br>This has been tested with bmp, gif, jpg and works fine. <br><br>BUT..... <br><br>The database should also be able to hold TIFF images, which the current DEMO dosn't support. <br><br>When trying to upload a Tiff image the DEMO fails - returning error when trying to generate the thumbnail.... <br>I'am not mastering image type, but have been told that tiff images isn't normally used to be viewed on screen but on paper instead. <br>The content -type of the file when uploading a tiff image is recognized as an 'application/octet-stream' - not really something usable! <br><br>So the questions are: <br><br>HOW DO I DESIGN A SOLUTION THAT TAKES A TIFF IMAGES AND GENERATES A THUMBNAIL ? <br><br>IS THERE ANY METHOD IN THE .NET FRAMEWORK THAT CAN CONVERT TIFF IMAGES TO JPEG'S ? <br><br>and finally if evrything else fails <img border="0" src="/forum/emoticons/jumpin.gif" height="31" width="31" alt="jumpin" /> <br><br>HOW DO I GET IMAGE DATA FROM SQL SERVER AND GENERATES A PHYSICAL FILE CALLED *.tiff ON THE LOCAL HARD DRIVE (and then redirects to it - ) <br><br><br>If this question hasn't been explained detailed enough please let me now and i'll try harder <br>the file.

you are telling The current DEMO is working<br>but iam facing a problem..<br>when iam executing the demo which is --> uploading images to database <br><br>iam facing the following error..<br><br>can u sugest me what the problem would me. even iam having the requirement of importing tiff images.. once i finish the gif,bmp images , then i have to proceed with tiff..<br><br><br><br>Compiler Error Message: CS1595: 'DBImages.UploadImage' is defined in multiple places; using definition from 'D:WINNTMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv1.0.3705Temporary ASP.NET Filesuploadimages 9024c3f8f540360assemblydla915ee37titlp!‰» Ø‹»¼ª¹
