Saving images to database

Any suggestions for getting by this error?
(cannot convert 1 dimensional array of byte to string)


Dim bufferLength As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(image_file.PostedFile.InputStream. Length)
Dim imageBytes As Byte()
ReDim imageBytes(bufferLength)
DB.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text

DB.InsertCommand = "INSERT INTO TBL_IMAGE (IMAGE_ID, IMAGE_NAME_LG, IMAGE_DATA_LG, IMAGE_CONT_LG) VALUES (@p_image_id, @p_image_name_lg, @p_image_data_lg, @p_cont_lg)"
DB.InsertParameters.Add("p_image_id", image_id)
DB.InsertParameters.Add("p_image_name_lg", image_title.Trim())
'Load(image_file) InputStream into Byte array
image_file.PostedFile.InputStream.Read(imageBytes, 0, bufferLength)
image_file.PostedFile.InputStream.Close()
DB.InsertParameters.Add("p_image_data_lg", imageBytes)
DB.InsertParameters.Add("p_cont_lg", mime_type)

'Connect to the database and insert the record
DBConnect(DB)
success = DB.Insert()

'Connect to the database and insert the record
DBConnect(DB)
success = DB.Insert()

first check the code
image_file.PostedFile.InputStream.Read(imageBytes, 0, bufferLength)
DB.InsertParameters.Add("p_image_data_lg", imageBytes)

see imagebyte is of type byte so check the functions which accepting the parameter imagebyte, the function may accept string.. first check all the function & its parameter types which u r used is correct or not..
then also error come means reply me i will try..
