Dont store images in the database.Store them in one folder.Make a field in database for ex:- "webimages" then in database coding set the default path to C:/imagefoldername/webimages

yes its possible to link. you can also store image data to database. i did it with VB.net (visual studio 2005). dont know the codes for C. go through MSDN. you will get the syntax.

if you use visual studio 2005 then you don't need to write any code. create sql table. then drag n drop the table to a form. visual studio will automatically create all the necessary controls including image control for image. its very easy.
