It can be done, however general wisdom is that one should use the
filesystem to store images, simply because its designed to store files.
At one point I did have a link on how to store images in a database, but
after testing, found that is was indeed, more efficient to store the
images in the filesystem, and store path pointers to the images in the
database.
