I'm working on a simple content management system that uses PHP and 
MySQL for updating a web site's text (stored in a MySQL database). (The 
PHP scripts that do the updating (my stuf) live on one web server, the 
actual DB data to be updated (my client's stuff) live on another.) So 
far, I've only had to he able to update the text content of a 
site--therefore, I've only had to bother to store textual data in the 
client's DB. But now the client wants to be able to upload/change/delete 
certain pictures on their web site--using my CMS tool--so I am faced 
with the following problem:

Do I store all such images in the DB? (Which I understand reduces 
performance.)

Or do I--somehow--store the images as files on the client's web server? 
And if so, how? (Because my PHP scripts are being executed on a 
different server.)
