The limits of free hosting
It just occurred to me that keeping images in the database itself isn't gonna work too well if we've got a size limit on the database. Well, proof of concept, eh? Just enough space for testing.
I suppose we could just have the file name in the database, with the file itself stored elsewhere. This might actually be easier to process--no BLOBs. I haven't worked with those in php before, but they can be a bear in Java.
This would require reworking the database a bit, though. Worrying about this later. The next bit of php will be the item creation code, which won't have images at all in it just yet until I get everything else working.
