gif and jpeg are equally popular. they work differently - u should not just
go and convert all your pics to one or another. as a rule of thumb, photos
and such should be jpeg while smaller pics should be gif. this is because of
the way they compress image data. u can google "difference between gif and
jpeg" to read more about it im sure.

3. Displaying a Thumbnail vs. creating a thumbnail 

Hello,

I'm wondering whats the best method to use for displaying several photos' 
thumbnails. One method I know is to dynamically resize the photo at the time 
the page is loaded. What does this do to server/site performance? The other 
is to copy the photo at time of upload and create a thumbnail then, have two 
separate images, therefor when displaying its just pulling the actual image.

What do you think??

5. bind images into Data List to build a thumbnail control 

I have been presented with this challenge. I need to build a image viewer 
type of control.  Basically, a specific part has different views, and when 
one part is selected, I need to display an image on a medium size and all the 
different views of the same part right below in some sort of thumbnail, and 
obviously, when any of the small pictures is clicked on, i need to display 
the bigger size right above. (something like Amazon.com does with their 
products)

Is important to say that I have already both sizes of the same image, coming 
from a image server and I don't need to mess with the size of each image.

Could someone point me in the right direction? give some code example or any 
article.  I would greatly appretiate it.

7. binding dynamic thumbnail images with image control in repeater 

hi there,

i have a repeater with 1 image control. I also have a function that 
generates a dynamic thumbnail from an image, and returns it as a stream, but 
i cant figure out how to bind it to the control, as the webcontrols.image 
control only has an ImageURL which is a string value.

so what i need is to put the system.drawing.image object into the 
webcontrols.image control.

Any help appreciated?
