VS 2010 : Display Random Images From A Web Folder?
Feb 6, 2012
What I want is when the program Loads, it would display random images from a folder on a website to a picturebox, like: [URL]thats a random pic but, [URL] is the folder of the image?
I'm wanting to create an application that will display images from a particular folder. On load, it will display the first image from the folder. Then the user can use a button to navigate through all of the images. [code]...
I have a program that will get a hash of the image but the problem is that I have to do to manually.I have a set of images of a folder names images(C:/images/) and ill be choosing which of those images i want to upload to my database.So far I got my program to work with database and such, wat I need is, if its possible I but the folder path on OpenFileDialog and I was a image to show in Picturebox1, then if I press button1 it will go to next picture.
I have a picture box which reads in an image from a folder to display, instead of having the usual boring image I thought it may be nice to have a number of images in the folder and let my vb.net program randomly pick one out to use.
how can i save all these images into application folder, also if image already in folder, then skip it. so it updates only new images in this list to the folder.
file to save to: C://program files/application/images image list: [URL] this list can be modified to work correctly if necessary.
i have a simple photo viewer application where i want the user to click a "load sequence" button and then i want something like a folderbroswerdialog to appear then the user can pick a folder with images in it then the images get loaded into the picturebox and the user can click a "forward" button to go to the next image in the sequence and a "backward" button to go to the previous image in the sequence, it's kinda like windows 7 photo viewer.
How can i display images in a picturebox using For Loop. Actually i've tried it before but only one image displays x times. What should i do so that all images will display?
The idea is to scan a folder of images and then let the user navigate back and forth through the images using a couple of buttons.The problem is, I can only get it to return a single image, and not the whole lot. It's looks to me as though the images are getting assigned to the same index in the array. [code]
I'm working on a program where I've got a WebBrowser control that displays an HTML file from my 'Resources' folder. Like so... WebBrowser1.DocumentText = My.Resources.MyHTMLFile That displays the text from the HTML file just fine, but it does not display the CSS styles or images that the HTML file uses (even though I've added the CSS file and images to the 'Resources' folder as well).
The Textbox.Text will be a new Item in ListBox when Button1.Click I want button2.click to pick a random item from the listbox and display it as the label. Think of it as a random raffle picker lol.
I need to have two pieces of software, made in vb where one encrypts the contents of a .txt file, and the other decrypts it, and then picks one word at random and displays it each time a button is pressed, but never displays the same word. Or, if there was a way to hard code it into the program as there is only 5 words that would be better.
We are doing a project using VB2010 as front end SQL server 2008R2 as backend.We need the code to display all the images in thumbnail view in VB when we open a database table.
I am developing a visual basic 2008 express edtion program of an organisation that should get images from the system and display on image/picture box. further the program should save the displayed image in access database so that it can be retrieved together when you want to search the information about that particular employee.
What would be the way to display random images in a picture box?When form opens, picture box displays random images, one after another (animated).When person pressed stop button, images stop randomly.
I have been able to associate a listview control with an imageview control to display images. There are a couple of things, I would like to do.
1> How do I display the image in the second column? 2> How do I increase the size of the image getting displayed? My images are all 48 x 48 (pixels), but they keep shrinking.
I am writing a program that shows random images in three picture boxes. When I open the program the initial images are in the picture boxes. When I click stop, the program is supposed to select a random image out of five. in each picture box. However, when I click start the images go away and when I click stop, no images appear. There is also a message that is supposed to come up on the screen, which it does. I just can't get the images to show. I am using Visual Basic 2005.
My code is below: Public Class videoBonanzaForm Private images() = {image1, image2, image3, image4, image5} Private image1 As Image = Image.FromFile("sevenpounds.gif") Private image2 As Image = Image.FromFile("push.gif") [Code] ......
I am trying to generate random images from access database using hashset as it is said to be unique and there won't be any repeated images appearing. But, it doesn't seem to work. ow can i get it to work? By the way, i am very new to the concept of hashset.
Private Function GetImageFromByteArray(ByVal picData As Byte()) As Image If picData Is Nothing Then Return Nothing
I wish to make a wallpaper changer that can select a random wallpaper from a given directory and sub directories. I'm not asking for code at this point, I'd like a reality check to see how hard this could be. I'm still quite a newbie at VB so I just wanna check if what I'm thinking process wise would work.The basic thing I'd like to do is have it pick one picture out of a given dir and sub dirs. Then set it as the wallpaper. I'd like it to be resized if larger than the desktops resolution to fit inside it, no stretching cropping or stuff.
That's the simple things I'd like it to do. Unfortunately I have dual monitors so it'd have to pick two wallpapers, resize each one independently, stick them together, and then set the wallpaper. I'd also like to make a kind of simple database which would have the name of each pic and two values with it. I'd like a value to mark if it's been used already which would be reset when all pictures have been used. The second would be a simple tag. This way i could have all car wallpapers listed as tag 1 and all non-car wallpapers listed as tag 2. Then I could chose whether to use all or only tagged wallpapers.
Heres the code im using to select images from a directory , i also have a timer delay between each image , but my problem is when i start my app , it start by selectind image 1 (Images are numbered 1-15) but i want to select the images randomly ?
Private Declare Auto Function SystemParametersInfo Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal uAction As Integer, ByVal uParam As Integer, ByVal lpvParam As String, ByVal fuWinIni As Integer) As Integer
The class Random is out right defective. It always produces the same random numbers in the same sequence. Things I have tried so far is every kind of seed you can think of as well as Randomize. The result is that I always get the same random numbers in exactly the same sequence.
I am practicing using the drawing commands, and have gotten a grass background and black happy face that moves around the background.It's a 10x10 grid of 50 pixels.I want (at the moment, when i press enter) it to generate a random number of trees (15 ~ 25) at random locations on the background. The program doesn't freak out about anything, and the variables seem to be right (using stop commands) but it's not drawing anything. Here is the code for the "GenerateTrees" command I have for when I press enter.
Private Sub GenerateTrees() NumberOfTrees = Int(Rnd() * 10) + 15 For i = 0 To NumberOfTrees - 1 bmap.MakeTransparent(Color.Fuchsia)

I was thinking to make an app to save images [or download images] to local hard disk. But to keep it easy, I want this app to create a small picturebox on form to show the thumbnail of downloaded image. Lets say a 5 pictureboxes has to be added with the thumbnails to show the recent downloads. A user can save the location where he wants to save the files on hard disk. A listbox or a dropdown menu will help in categorizing the images, like image1 in friends section, image2 in family section, image3 in others, etc... When the program restarts all the latest 5 thumbnails has to be loaded in pictureboxes and the directory that was chosen. Finally, a button that shows the downloaded images into original image file size one by one or a slide show. Is it possible to make such program?
I've made an image viewer which opens a random image from a specified folder, but the random number is not that random at all... I've already used Randomize(), but without result.
this is just the location where i want to save my image i haven't run or try any thing with this code , i am just wondering how to do this this location is on the server side Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load Dim saveLocation As String = Server.MapPath("PDFs")End Sub
Also, I would like to know if there is a way to use the id to save since i might have more than one image to be saved.
I wants to ask how to add images that are uploaded in picturebox with opendialoguebox tool in a particular folder , without the help of database means no use of database i only wants to store the images in a folder, i tried but there is an error.
So I'm making a program for a game, which can view screenshots you take in-game with the print screen key. I planing to add more functions later, but that's not important now.
So what I would like is a code that list all images in a folder of choice in a ImageList then I have a Next and Previous button to show diffrent pictures inside a PictureBox.
how to pick a random file out of a folder and open it, lets say we have text files. And i want to click a button and a random .txt file opens in my programs textbox.
