Create a GenericHandler.

Note: When your application moves to production, You need to make sure D:\Users\Images folder exists in web server.

```
public class ImageHandler : IHttpHandler{    public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)    {        string fileName = context.Request.QueryString["filename"];        context.Response.ContentType = "image/jpeg";        context.Response.TransmitFile(@"D:\Users\Images\Pictures\" + fileName);    }     public bool IsReusable    {        get { return false; }    }}
```

**ASPX**

```
<asp:Repeater ID="Repeater1" runat="server">    <ItemTemplate>        <asp:Image runat="server"             ImageUrl='<%# "~/ImageHandler.ashx?filename=" + Eval("Value") %>' />    </ItemTemplate></asp:Repeater> protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e){    if (!IsPostBack)    {        string[] filePaths = Directory.GetFiles(@"D:\Users\Images\Pictures");        List<ListItem> files = new List<ListItem>();        foreach (string filePath in filePaths)        {            string fileName = Path.GetFileName(filePath);            files.Add(new ListItem(fileName, fileName));         }        Repeater1.DataSource = files;        Repeater1.DataBind();    }}
```
