Hey all,
Query, when uploading images to a big site pulling its content from a DB do ye store the images in the database?
Personally, i have usually stored images in a seperate folder on my ftp and named them the primary key of the entry in my database. I use this method cos images will quickly eat up the db size.
Can anyone think of any issues with this method... the main one is that i use 2 seperate systems to access one piece of information, not a huge complaint but for consistancy its not ideal, and im curious if there are more issues ive overlooked?
