an array of pictures, what datatype?

[tiamat2012]

Hey, I'm trying to make an array of pictures

for instance, if someone was making a new item and said (in reference to cars) this car has 3 pictures, and then list them out. Is there a datatype or a recommended way of doing this? Or do I need to put a datafield for as many pictures as there could possibly be?

Thank you very much,
Kerry

i would suggest that u never save the images in the DB.

just save the image file paths, even here u could have a comma seperated list of image files (therefore all the image paths can be saved in just one field)...

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

I agree with vbkris, use pointers.
