Save Image Help

[bfsog]

I am trying to create a program that lets users draw on a picture box, and then save it, when the user clicks Save (button).

However, when I try and save, the dialog box erases the stuff drawn on the Picturebox.

Heres my save code

	   Try
			With pic
			 .Filter = "Images (*.jpg)|*.jpg|" & "Images (*.bmp)|*.bmp|" & "All Files|*.*"
			    .Title = ".:: Choose file to be saved ::."
				.ShowHelp = True
				.InitialDirectory = "C:\"
			 If .ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then 'showDialog method makes the dialog box visible at run time
				 Dim file As String = pic.FileName
				    PictureBox1.Image.Save(file)
				End If
			End With
		Catch es As Exception
		    MessageBox.Show(es.Message, MessageBoxButtons.AbortRetryIgnore)
		End Try

Any ideas? Thanks

Hi,
It seems like you are saving the image from PicBox rather but drawed content ... Cheers

Um, thanks for quick reply kulrom

So how do I save the "draft" content?
