How do you store images in a database..... basically allowing a user to select picture and later recall them. I do know that I will be using SQL

It's usually better to store the images in the file system, and store a pointer to them (filename?) in the database itself.

~GM is right, but doing a Google search will get you what you need - the technique is all over the internet.
