Re: Writing a GIF/JPG Image

Well, hehe I'm kinda just learning it all, here is what I really wanna do: I have a table in a MySQL database that will contain the gif data in a column. I want to be able to read that in with a SELECT statement (which I can do), problem is I need to actually put hte images in the database, so I need to somehow read in the Logo.gif file, and store it in SQL with an INSERT statement... thats what Im trying to do, can't figure it out 8(.
