Membership profile question
-
Hmm.. Okay I have a website with a profile for the members. I am storing the members picture in a database. My worry is if my member community gets to large it will max out the storage on my database. So my other alternative is storing the member pictures right on the server. Really I don't know which one is a better way of doing things.. If anyone could shed some light on this it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much, Steve

Rather store the images as files on disc. Unless you have a very specific requirement for storing images in a database, rather use the file system. Seriously, that is the bottom line.
