You are reading me wrong. I am talking about specific data. For example, if you wanted to store a bunch of user specific data for each image (username, preferences, etc.), you couldn't do that in a file system. Of course, in a well designed relational database, you would have all that in a separate table anyway, so the point is moot. -------------- [INFO] -- Access Manager: This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
