Read this: (Does a good job explaining uploads)

How I personally handle images in mysql, is not put the image in the database
(Does it even allow this??) But just put the relative, or complete PATH to the
image. So, your database would store:
'/www/htdocs/IMAGES/some_picture.jpg'
Then you can pull that from your database and use the HTML <img> tage to
display it.
