[Guest]

I was make an function which reads file from windows path and read that image
with bytereader I able to make it,
Then I try to get that image from httpwebrequest but I get convert'ing
problems
stream to string to byte[] to base64?

HttpWebRequest myRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(imagelink);
HttpWebResponse myResponse=(HttpWebResponse)myRequest.GetResponse();

Stream mystream=myResponse.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader mystreamReader=new StreamReader(mystream);

string result=mystreamReader.ReadToEnd();

byte[] mybytes;
mybytes=new System.Text.ASCIIEncoding().GetBytes(result);

returnstring+=Convert.ToBase64String(mybytes);

Thanks for your help.

Don't use TextReaders to read binary data! Simply consume the
ResponseStream.
