then you are making the server(s) work twice as hard as they need to   ;o)

unless, of course, your database server is passing the images to other
applications besides web pages

but if web pages is the only current purpose, then it's much easier to store
the images on the web server, and just store the directory/file path in a
short text field in the database

display it?
