Loading images to MySQL using Read/Write

[Stephen Barncard]

1. you could use Apple file sharing... mount the remote 'server' 
computer on the desktop
2. you could use the Apache web server built into MacOSX
3. you could use a network server appliance
4. you could use a web host out on the net...

it all depends on WHERE you need to share. If it needs to be outside 
your own network, I'd suggest a web host.

conceivably you don't need to organize in files and folders.. this 
organizational stuff could be done virtually in the database so all 
the files could actually be in one directory
