images: best to store as a file or in the db?
Is it best to store images in a Database?
or is it quicker just simply to keep them as files??
The file upload takes long enough as it is, is there
not yet a further delay when you upload it again to
the database?

Yeah. I would only put text into a database. Otherwise it may get too big, and db's weren't made to hold binary data.
3. agreement on using the filesystem.
the server may then use the file-cache and your DB isn't blown up with the BLOBs and in case you delete them needs to defragmented (maybe)
