putting border around image

[mjd3000]

I am reading an image from a database and writing it to the screen. But now I also need to put a border around this image. Here is my code :

public void showSelectedImage(string strEncodedImage)
{
Response.Clear();
Response.ContentType = "image/jpeg";

System.Drawing.Image image = retrieveImage(strEncodedImage);

System.Drawing.Image.GetThumbnailImageAbort dummyCallback;

dummyCallback = new System.Drawing.Image.GetThumbnailImageAbort(ThumbnailCallback);

System.Drawing.Image thumb;

thumb = image.GetThumbnailImage(1200, 800, dummyCallback, IntPtr.Zero);

thumb.Save(Response.OutputStream, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg);
}

public bool ThumbnailCallback()
{
return false;
}

private System.Drawing.Image retrieveImage(string strEncodedImage)
{
System.Drawing.Image image = null;

byte[] imageData = Convert.FromBase64String(strEncodedImage);

MemoryStream memStream = new MemoryStream(imageData);
image = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(memStream);

return image;
}

Is it possible to add a border to this image?

I have done this differently in the past. I used a generic handler(.ashx). In that file, I stream the image from the DB. Then, that gets put into the src of the image tag.

<img id="" src="<%# "Path to handler" + "/YourHandler.ashx %>" height="106" width="81" alt="" [b]style="border-style: none;"[/b]/>

putting a border on the image can be done through CSS.
