Answer 1

You can go with this tutorial.
A part from the link to save images in database:
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
If TextBox1.Text = "" Then
MsgBox("Fill the Name Field")
Else
Dim sql As String = "INSERT INTO Information VALUES(#name,#photo)"
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand(sql, con)
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#name", TextBox1.Text)
Dim ms As New MemoryStream()
PictureBox1.BackgroundImage.Save(ms, PictureBox1.BackgroundImage.RawFormat)
Dim data As Byte() = ms.GetBuffer()
Dim p As New SqlParameter("#photo", SqlDbType.Image)
p.Value = data
cmd.Parameters.Add(p)
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
MessageBox.Show("Name & Image has been saved", "Save", MessageBoxButtons.OK)
Label1.Visible = False
TextBox1.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
and here is how images retrieves:
Private Sub DataGridView1_CellMouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellMouseEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellMouseClick
cmd = New SqlCommand("select photo from Information where name='" & _
DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(0).Value() & "'", con)
Dim imageData As Byte() = DirectCast(cmd.ExecuteScalar(), Byte())
If Not imageData Is Nothing Then
Using ms As New MemoryStream(imageData, 0, imageData.Length)
ms.Write(imageData, 0, imageData.Length)
PictureBox1.BackgroundImage = Image.FromStream(ms, True)
End Using
End If
GroupBox2.SendToBack()
GroupBox2.Visible = False
Label1.Visible = True
Label1.Text = DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(0).Value()
End Sub
