Question Saving a drawn image on picturebox to file

[davco]

I am using vb .net 2003 and can draw on a picturebox just fine,but I can`t figure out how to save that drawing to a file.Can anyone help me out with this problem?

I have this code here that will add the picturebox to a file but there is only black where the image is supposed to be.
Dim img As Image
img = PB1.Image
t = TBsave.Text
Dim newBitmap As Bitmap = New Bitmap(x, y, PixelFormat.Format16bppRgb555)
img = newBitmap
newBitmap.Save(t, ImageFormat.Jpeg)
I have tried several things but this is as close as I can get.
Any help is appreciated in advance.

Get a Graphics instance with Graphics.FromImage method, now you can draw the same that you drew to the control surface to the bitmap.

Note that the same method is used to do the drawing, whether the Graphics object comes from a Paint event handler or from a FromImage call. The method will just draw with whatever it's given. You can then call Image.Save.
