Image help..

I have a slideshow program that I made, and when it loads pictures, they appear much more grainy then if I open the image with another program, like microsoft image viewer.

Is there anyway that I can make the image clearer?

Example:
Grainy Image:

Good Image:

Any help would be great...thanks!!! :)

Maybe if you told us how you're showing the images or showed us code?

Protected Overrides Sub OnPaint(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs)

Dim g As Graphics = e.Graphics
Dim bm As Bitmap = CType(Image.FromFile("C:\ja15^001.jpg"), Bitmap)
g.SmoothingMode = Drawing.Drawing2D.SmoothingMode.AntiAlias
g.DrawImage(bm, 10, 10, Me.Width - 10, Me.Height - 10)
End Sub


That's how I am loading it :)

Why not just drop the image into a PictureBox? Why are you painting it?
