I know this is an older article, but may be useful for those who want to display an image on the server side of .NET using jQuery.
You should use slightly different logic.
So $ ("# <% = myServerimg.ClientID%>"). show () will not work if you hid the image using myServerimg.visible = false.
Instead, use the following server-side command:
myServerimg.Style.Add("display", "none")
