Hi,

 

1.)You can just print the image using apex:outputfield value="{!your field name}"

 

2.)I dont think we can upload images using data loader

Hi Thanks,

 

i am populating user detail in other visual force page so i couldn't use outputField( if i use outputField, i am getting this error

 Error: Could not resolve the entity from <apex:outputField> value binding '{!$User.Signature__c}'. <apex:outputField> can only be used with SObject fields.

, so i have used "<apex:outputText value="{!$User.Signature__c}"  />" but its not showing any thing.

This is becuase the inputFIeld and Text can only be used with sobject and $user is a global variable so you need to get this info using user object in your class and then use in your VF

 


    public user cuser{get;set;}

   

     get current user info in your constructor like this

    cuser=[select id,firstname,lastname,photo__c from user where id=:UserInfo.getUserId()];

 

     Now use the  rich text field in your page like

 

     <apex:outputField value="{!cuser.photo__c}" ></apex:outputField>
