'Save an Image to a memory stream so you can get the bytes
        Dim sampleImage As Bitmap = New Bitmap(100, 100)
        Dim mStream As New System.IO.MemoryStream
        Dim ImageBytes As Byte()

        sampleImage.Save(mStream, Imaging.ImageFormat.Png)
        ImageBytes = mStream.ToArray

        'Sample Insert image command
        'Save the bytes from the image into a image or varbinary column
        Dim com As New SqlClient.SqlCommand("Insert Into MyTable" & vbCrLf & _
                                            "(MyImageColumn)" & vbCrLf & _
                                            "Values(@MyImage)")

        'an image column or varbinary column
        com.Parameters.Add("@MyImage", SqlDbType.Image)
        com.Parameters("@MyImage").Value = ImageBytes


        'Sample Read Image Command
        'Read the bytes from the table and create a new memory stream from them
        com.CommandText = "Select MyImage From MyTable"
        Dim rdr As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader

        rdr = com.ExecuteReader
        If rdr.Read Then
            Dim newMstream As New System.IO.MemoryStream(CType(rdr.Item("MyImage"), Byte()))
            'Create a new image from the bytes from the memory
            Dim ImageFromDB As New Bitmap(newMstream)

        End If

Table:

 CREATE TABLE [dbo].[imgtable](
      [id] [int] NULL,
      [img] [image] NULL
  ) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]

Code :

        Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("insert into imgtable (id,img) values ( @id,@img)", cnn)
        cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@id", id)
        cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@img", content)
        cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
