  Not exactly the same.. but this is how I populate a coverFlow with remote images..

  var xCon = [];
          var file = [];
          xCon[idx] = Titanium.Network.createHTTPClient();
          xCon[idx].onload = function()
          {
          file[idx] = Titanium.Filesystem.createTempFile(Titanium.Filesystem.resourcesDirectory);
          file[idx].write( this.responseData );
          trace("We are setting index: " + idx);
          coverflowImages.push(file[idx].nativePath);
          imgCoverFlow.images = coverflowImages;
          }
          xCon[idx].onerror = function()
          {
  
          }
  

  I pull in the blob, then write it to a temporary file.. then push it into an array to be used for the coverflow…
  You could take your query output.. write them to a temp file.. then add them to the image of the imageView..

• So I got it to work once I converted the db image type to a base 64 string like this in the web method:
  e[i].AssetsPicture = Convert.ToBase64String((Byte[])row["AssetsPicture"]);

  Then converted in titanium to get blob and used that to set the image:
  var assetImage = Titanium.UI.createImageView({
  image: Titanium.Utils.base64decode(jsondata[0].AssetsPicture),
  height: 60,
  width: 80,
  left: 10,
  top: 30
  });
  detailView.add(assetImage);

• I think I tried something similar to what you are doing, but I don't quite understand your response.

  I have a string back from my web service call and I think I just need to get that into a byte array or BLOB or something that titanium can understand when i try and create the image view.

  [code]
  var imageAsString = jsondata[0].picture; // String back from WS

  var file = Titanium.FileSystem.createTempFile(Titanium.Filesystem.resourcesDirectory);

  file.write(imageAsString);

  var image = Titanium.UI.createImageView({
  image: file.read(),
  height: 60,
  width: 80,
  left: 10,
  top: 30
  });

  detailView.add(image);
  [/code]

  I don't get an errors but my image does not get displayed.

  I have also tried file.nativePath() to get the url of the temp file that I created instead of file.read() the just produced an exception.

  Am I even close or is there an easier way? Thanks!!!
