Insert Images into MySQL fields

[Anon]

Can anyone help me about how can do that, thanks

a) Don't do that unless you don't care about performance

I have an image upload script using this function. Works fine.

Sure it works, technically it's no problem.

But now hit your server over the head with a large number of concurrent users
(100+) and see what kind of performance you get.

It is much more efficient to store the images on disk and only store a reference to the file's location in the database.
If you store the images in the database, you are just creating tons of overhead.
