well, 1st I need to say that you cant use server.mappath in the connection string because that wont work from every directory level... it will give you problems so just dont do that.

Specify the entire physical path in the connection string.
See my article CAREFULLY for full details.

Now on the the image thing

if http://www.creationcube.com/data/pictures/Ad_7_1.gif truly exists

go look via ftp and make sure the file is there

If it is the reason you can see it via HTTP is because that folder does not have proper permissions set for viewing files via HTTP

If that is the case then you need to talk to your host about that

tell them data/pictures wont let pictures be seen via http//



If the picture file is not physically there when you look via ftp then you got other issues...  I am not sure as you were not real clear about whther or not the file was really getting uploaded there
