For the display of pictures, you can work with a variety of options, but a
DataGrid, DataList or Repeater are all fine for display of multiple items.
If you want the pictures to go across a row and start on the next row, the
DataList is quite easy, for example.
To bind:
One way is to set up a DataSource control (SqlDataSource, etc.) that pulls
the info about the pictures. To display the pictures, you will either store
them in the database (not my fave) or have a page that actually serves the
picture. This can be done in tags or in the row data binding event.
You then have another DataSource that hooks up to the details view and you
configure it to use the ID of the chosen item in the DataList. This makes an
easy master/detail page.
