WCF Service Bad request when I try to send image as byte[]

Question

Here I showed full functionality of image upload via WCF function.

Whenever I call the below service I am getting bad request. Please find where I made mistakes.

My wcf servie:

http://XXX.XXX.X.XX:/RestServiceImpl.svc/send?canvasbyte=[B@40fa5860&EmployeeID=1

My Service Interface:

    [OperationContract]
    [WebGet(
        ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json,
        BodyStyle = WebMessageBodyStyle.Wrapped,
        UriTemplate = "/send?canvasbyte={imgbyte}&EmployeeID={EmployeeID}")]
    string sendresponse(Byte[] imgbyte, string EmployeeID);

My SVC

 public string sendresponse(Byte[] imgbyte, string EmployeeID)
    {
       db.GetExcuteNonQuery("update emp_tb_eob_Employee set Signature='" + imgbyte + "'      where EmployeeID=" + EmployeeID);
        return "Success";
    }

You may want to consider passing the image as either a base64 encoded string or a stream.

The following link outlines the options well:
