Hi all.

I am building a small shopping app for my girlfriend who sells women
underwear (no, i do not get to run around with hot models, other than the
uml ones).

HA HA HA! :P

*sorry could not resist*


As the He-Man of this project I opted for Wicket (obviously) with
ActiveObjects and Postgres.

Now to the question or opinion request.

I have to show a nice catalog display, maybe with the gallery style of small
pic large image for enlargement.

Should I put my images in the database and use a blob type or should I build
file system hierarchy?

I would do neither! - you should have a look at JCR, especially Apache Jackrabbit as its reference impl. - that'll solve your problems while still keeping you flexible in future. You also might want to have a look at Brix-CMS as a good starting point and has good reasons to use it:
-> it gives you most needed CMS functions for your shop
-> it uses JCR to save its content
-> it can be extended using Tiles that are somewhat wicket-panels that implement a special interface -> its made by 2 wicket core devs that build it as a basement for their selling-shopsoftware
-> big part of its code is written by Igor :)

Best,

Korbinian


Should I stay or Should I go? ;-)


thats obviously a thing your gilfriend has to answer... ;D
