There is nothing that complicated here if you know a little vb.net. What is your level of expertise? If you don't know anything about vb.net you will have to do a little reading on your own first. If you don't have a book then I suggest you start with the video series Visual Basic Fundamentals: Development for Absolute Beginners

Use
My.Computer.FileSystem.MoveFile(srcefile,destfile)
to move the image file (there are 4 overloads so pick the one that you need). To display an image you can use a PictureBox control with the Zoom property set to Size. To display an image you do
pbxPicture.Load(filename)
