ColdFusion Images
When using a web host company, what is the best way to save pictures to the database. I need to let the user select an image on his/her computer and then the database will save it to thier record. Should I convert the image? Does that image file get put in a folder on the web host. How does that work?

Your best bet is to store them in a dir on the server. Maybe an /image folder. If they only need to upload 1 picture, save it as username.gif, else you could convert the time to a string and save it as 43705983479.gif (numbers = time converted) and link it in the database to their account.
Hope this helps. Let me know.
