Re: Best way to store images in DB ?
I've seen several answers to that post but none of them have asked the question : what will you do with the images ? If the images are to be queried a lot then do not store them in the database. Keep them on the OS. In a prevoius life, we've benchmarked our site (www.houra.fr) with images in and out of Oracle. Out wins in term fo performance. We have developed a small system so the managers can entered text for each images. This time, the images were in Oracle in a blob datatype.

Re: Best way to store images in DB ?
UTL_FILE_DIR is for text files only using utl_file package; not useful for pictures. For pictures you have two choices (1) Use BLOB fields where the picture can be stored in the database. This adds to security and reliability. However, it generates too much redo (and archvive). (2) Use BFILE, where the actual file is stored on the file system and pointer to it is stored in the database. However security is definitely an issue. And how do you plan to back it up? There are other ways like using WebDAV and iFS, but I have no experience in using them.
