Hi, I'm new to blobs. I want to create a seperate table that will hold blob's or pictures. Each picture will be a .gif and will not exceed 100k in size. each image will be called, ord.gif, bar.gif, cmi,gif, lax.gif, jfk.gif, ord.gif, etc. The questions I had were 1. what would the create table statment look like. 2. Should I use a longblob based on my 100k .gif size? 3. Is one column with the gifs enough. Or should I add a autoincremented primary key? 4. Is it better to have a seperate table for this or, is it better to update my existing table, and add a blob column. Does it matter in terms of speed of queries? Queries will be done via php. Thanks!
