I have run into the same issue while trying to programmatically retrieve images from Facebook. The strange part is that if you point a Silverlight image control to the Facebook image url, the image is retrieved and displayed without error. This got me thinking and I have come up with a viable workaround that seems to work consistently for my situation. I hope you find it useful too. <pre><code>var uri = new Uri("http://graph.facebook.com/mglace/picture/", UriKind.Absolute); var bmp = new BitmapImage(); bmp.ImageOpened += (sender, e) => { /* Do something here with the sender (which is the BitmapImage) */ }; bmp.CreateOptions = BitmapCreateOptions.None; bmp.UriSource = uri; </code></pre> Create a <code>BitmapImage</code> object, set an event handler for the <code>ImageOpened</code> event and set the <code>CreateOptions</code> property to <code>BitmapCreateOptions.None</code>. Finally, set the <code>UriSource</code> to the Facebook image you want to retrieve. The image is downloaded immediately because we set the <code>CreateOptions</code> to <code>None</code> (the default value is <code>DelayedCreation</code>). You can then perform any actions you would like in the <code>ImageOpened</code> event handler. I wanted to encapsulate this logic in my service layer and beef up the error handling and such so I wrapped it in a Reactive Extensions observable to make it easier to use. Here is my final code snippet: <pre><code>public IObservable<BitmapImage> GetProfilePhoto(string profileId) { return Observable.Create<BitmapImage>( observer => { // This handler handles a successful fetch EventHandler<RoutedEventArgs> openedHandler = (sender, args) => { try { observer.OnNext(sender as BitmapImage); observer.OnCompleted(); } catch (Exception ex) { observer.OnError(ex); } }; // This handler handle a failure EventHandler<ExceptionRoutedEventArgs> failedHandler = (sender, args) => observer.OnError(args.ErrorException); var url = string.Format("http://graph.facebook.com/{0}/picture/", profileId); var uri = new Uri(url, UriKind.Absolute); BitmapImage bmp = null; try { Deployment.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke( () => { bmp = new BitmapImage(); bmp.ImageOpened += openedHandler; bmp.ImageFailed += failedHandler; bmp.CreateOptions = BitmapCreateOptions.None; bmp.UriSource = uri; }); } catch (Exception ex) { observer.OnError(ex); } return () => { // Cleanup the event handlers if (bmp != null) { bmp.ImageOpened -= openedHandler; bmp.ImageFailed -= failedHandler; } }; }); } </code></pre> And usage: <pre><code>GetProfilePhoto("mglace") .Subscribe(image => { /* Do something with the image in here*/ }, error => { /* Handle any errors in here */ }, () => { /* Finalization code goes here */ }); </code></pre> I hope someone out there finds this useful.

1. COI used your code and it worked like a charm. I want to know if there is any possibility to get image's stream, so the image could be edited.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
