Photos mixing with Databases

[wiseguy89]

Hello once again,

Can a photo be uploaded onto a database in MySQL? If a database is just tables, how would a user be able to upload photos or avatars? Adding on to that, How would you link the photo with the user?

Yes, using blob (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/blob.html)
But the easy and efficient way is to store the images in some directory and store its path in DB table
