[Fixed]-Django store image in database

7👍

No, there isn’t. And for good reason. It’s horribly inefficient to store and serve images from the database. Store them on the filesystem, and serve them directly from Apache.

There is a nice solution here: http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1305/ it stores content in a database blob.

It seems there is no built-in BlobField in Django. However, there is one available here. I’m not sure if it supports all backends, but it might work for you. With that, you could write up a form & view that uploades the image as an attachment and stores it as a blob in the database.
