[solved] database row for an image?

what would the image part be?

on a row?

I think you might be asking about populating a database with images???

MySQL uses a blob field. I discourage this. Just store the image "link text" in the field and design your code around the link. It's much quicker!!!

I prefer to actually store the images in the database, makes everthing easier to manage, special in a CMS environment.

use a field of type Blob to store the file data and one of type varchar to store the MIME type
