            After a lot of trying and hard work I finally manged to store an image into an SQL Server database using a byte array. But now I'm stuck at how to retrieve it back into my application's picture box control.

It is usually recommended that you not store graphics within the database. The database will quickly become a performance bottleneck and you will see your database grow quickly to a very large size.

That said, I posted an answer to a similar question up on the SearchSQLServer.com site in the mailbag last week. It's very high level as I'm not a programmer, but should give you a starting point.
