Dear Umbraco folk,

The following code is working to create and "empty" image node in Umbraco BackOffice / Media section

var ms = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.MediaService;
    var newImage = ms.CreateMedia(imageSourcePathPrimaryString, tTImagesFolderID, "Image");
    ms.Save(newImage);

However - Then I am trying to "populate" that "empty" image node with an image and properties. To do this I am trying to use the following code:

imageSourcePathPrimaryString = "/images/microsoft/catalog/Box_Microsoft.jpg";
    string physicalImagePath = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(imageSourcePathPrimaryString);
    System.IO.FileStream imageFileStream = new System.IO.FileStream (physicalImagePath, FileMode.Open);
    string imageFileName = imageFileStream.Name;
    newImage.SetValue("umbracoFile", imageFileName, imageFileStream);

But the image remains "empty" with no image to be seen and not Width, Height, Size or Type properties set.

Am I approaching this the right way ? Can anyone see what I might be doing wrong ?

Thanks all.
