WindowsPhone 8 - Upload image to php page

I already searched for a lot of different tutorials on how to upload an image from an windowsphonen 8 app to my php page (fileserver) - nothing works for me, so I 'm asking you.

This is my code to convert a Stream to Base64

    string PhotoStreamToBase64(Stream PhotoStream)
    {
        MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
        PhotoStream.CopyTo(memoryStream);
        byte[] result = memoryStream.ToArray();

        string base64img = System.Convert.ToBase64String(result);
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

        for (int i = 0; i < base64img.Length; i += 32766)
        {
            sb.Append(Uri.EscapeDataString(base64img.Substring(i, Math.Min(32766, base64img.Length - i))));
        }

        return sb.ToString();
    }

I catch the Image using photoChooserTask (this works fine, but I dont get a Stream I can use for the other Method)

    private void photoChooserTask_Completed(object sender, PhotoResult e)
    {
        if (e.TaskResult == TaskResult.OK)
        {
            MessageBox.Show(e.ChosenPhoto.Length.ToString());

            //Code to display the photo on the page in an image control named myImage.
            System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage bmp = new System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage();
            bmp.SetSource(e.ChosenPhoto);
            MyImage.Source = bmp;
        }
    }

To Upload the image I tried this:

    public void UploadImageAsync(Stream PhotoStream)
    {
        try
        {
            WebClient w = new WebClient();
            w.Headers["Content-type"] = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";

            string data = "id=1" +
                    "&_fake_status=200" +
                    "&type=base64" +
                    "&image=" + PhotoStreamToBase64(PhotoStream);

            w.UploadStringAsync(new Uri("http://myurl.de/php/app/changeimg.php", UriKind.Absolute), "POST", data);

        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
        }
    }

The last part is my php file

    function base64_to_image( $imageData, $outputfile ) {
    $ifp = fopen( $outputfile, "wb" );
    fwrite( $ifp, base64_decode( $imageData ) );
    fclose( $ifp );
    return( $outputfile );
    }       

    if (isset($_POST['image'])) {
    base64_to_jpeg($_POST['image'], "test".$_GET['id'].".jpg");
$file = 'people.txt';

     $person = "Win";

    file_put_contents($file, $person, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);
     }
    else
{
    die("no image data found");
$file = 'people.txt';

     $person = "Fail";

    file_put_contents($file, $person, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);
}

I got all these code snippets from different sources and somehow thought it's the best "idea" I could find. Does anyone maybe have an example code for my Problem? I 'm really new to Windowsphone dev and I need some serious help on that problem.

First off all, do not use WebClient class, use HttpClient and its method PostAsync and then it completely dependent on your Web API implementation
