How to store jpg's in an image column

Hi
I want to store an image (not just the pointer to the
image, but the entire image) in an image data type column
in my database.
How do I do this? The images will be small (7kb) so I'd
like to do this rather than just store the pointer to an
image on the file system.
Thanks in advance !!

How to store Images

Hey. I just wanted to know what the best way of storing images is- scores of
quite large jpegs. Are there any best practices I should know about?
Thanks

Many advocate storing the images on disk and just storing a pointer to
the file in the SQL Server database. If you _must_ store in the
database, then you may want to place the table or just the image column
from the table on it's own filegroup (on a different set of drives).

It all depends on the system and what the JPEG mean within the system. If
the file is an attribute of the data, then I advocate storing it in the
database.
The downside to storing files on disk with a pointer in the database:
> No referential integrity
> Filenames must be unique (this means you need to rename files as they
come in to something like 24_OriginalFileName.jpg where 24 is your Pointer ID)d">
> Portability & Backup Headaches
> Write file permissions required on special folder
But as David said, if your images are expected to be quite large, use a
different filestore for the table.
