Hi! I am designing a database driven application. The main purpose of this
application is to print signs and label with plant (botanical) information
and a picture of the plant. This is mainly intended for the nurseries. Our
application comes with 3500+ full plants description and hi-res picture for
each one, while the end user can add his own into the db. However, my boss
don't want the end user to have directly access to the picture (the one
provided with the application). At first, I thought I was going to store
only the path in a table field, but now I have to store the image into a
database. Since the picture are hi resolution, the picture will be al least
1.5+ mb, so we'll need two database (even more), that will for sure slow
down the cpu performance. So on another forum, some people told me to look
out for Resource File. I googled to find some information, few so far. What
I'd like to know from you guys, is what would be the way to go? Storing
picture in multiple database? Using Resource file??? Or anyone has some
better trick? Thank you! Your help is really appreciated!
