The Age Old Question: upload Images to MYSQL or Images to Webserver?

[fuzzyfluid]

hi guys, im having trouble deciding on the approach to go about.

i want peopel to be able to upload images so should i have them upload it into a db using BLOB or should i have them upload it to the web server?

i've been reading people say that the web server is probably better to use, but i dont know about that using AS.

anyone got a preference or a good approach?

I don't mind doing either one, but i don't know, i read some folks are paranoid about DB corruption.

any advice, let me know.

it seems the cooler solution (inmo) is to put them in the database
but it also seems that it would be much safer to put them on the webserver.

i have been in the same situation and just decided go what is seemingly the safer route, but i would be very glad to hear others opinions
