Yes, thanks for that insight Jeff. However, in 7 years of building
international intranets I have never had the opportunity or occasion to even
consider its use. Unfortunately, I need to store images in a database for
security and migration purposes, not necessarily for web ready imaging. I
appreciate your thoughts, asI have already offered several other secure
solutions other than storing the images in a database. Mostly because I
couldn't figure out how to do it. So yes, there is a specific reason I need
to store the images in a database.
