Grab png image from web

[dschu012]

There are images from the web that are PNG's that I am trying to grab. I seem to be able to grab them however when I do they are not the same size (in bytes) as the image that is stored on the web. For instance one image I am trying to grab is 2666 bytes, when I grab it the image become 3190 bytes. I am able to save it on my computer if I just right click it in my web browser and it turns out to be the right number of bytes but how can I do this correctly programmatically?

The function that I am using that does it wrong is

        private static Image pngFromWeb(string URL)
        {
            WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(URL);
 
            WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
 
            Image png = Image.FromStream(response.GetResponseStream());
 
            png.Save("C:\\image.png", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png);
 
            response.Close();
 
            return png;
        }

Hi There,
Try using WebClient.DownloadFile() instead.

Thanks, I found this out like a minute after I posted and it worked nice :-)
