System.Drawing.Image.FromFile from URL?

can i create a system.drawing.Image from a url. using
http://www.domain.com/image.jpg instead of c:\image.jpg. ?
thanks!No, but you can use the WebClient or WebRequest classes to bring the
bytes to the local computer and then create the Image obect.

As scott mentioned, you do not have any method that can directly read the
image from URL.
Use webclient and read it into a byte[] using DownloadData
then you Image class to load it
