Hi,
I came over from the Asp.Net world, so my Php/MySql knowledge still got big holes in it.
With Asp.Net/MS SQL I once experimented with saving images in the database as blob data. It turned out so slow, I changed to ftp'ing images to the server rather, saving the path only in the database.
Before making another time-wasting experiment, I would like to know if this is the better way with PHP also. The other day I noticed it's so simple to allow users to upload files with PHP, so I reckon that is the best way. Just wanted to hear what you experienced guys have to say. (That means noobs shurrup! :D )
