RE: [PHP] pro's and con's of storing images

How many times do I have to post it here ... People, store the graphics (or any other kind of uploaded and not-uploaded files) our of DBs, put them in some logic way in some directories so they are easier to use. Not in DB. In DB it will just getting slower. UNLESS there is no other solution for a problem you could have. my point: whenever it is possible to store the files in folders rather then DBs - store them so.
