Sorry I missed your reply back there. Just saw it now.
I would need to know more about the site you are attempting to get the image information from. Does the site actually
display the image or a thumbnail of the image? .ASP? ASP.NET? The URL won't usually have image data in it, unless you
have control over the site and can embed it in Meta Data or something like that. Or in a hidden input. Otherwise you
will have to download the image to get it's internal data.

Carl,
Is there a way load the image as browser would using http, and use it to get
the dimensions for an image based on a URL, rather than a local file? The
images I need to refer to are not local. Would this use a Stream reader or
something? Not familiar enough with how to get this, as all stream readers
seem to read a file, not a URL.

http doesn't provide the images dimensions. It simply says what size to display the image on the client browser. To
accurately get the images size you need to get the image local and use the handy System.Drawing.Image class to
extract
whatever info you need. Well most of it anyway.
