Alternative methods for storing uploaded images?

Just wondering if it's better to either store uploaded images, via something like a form of CMS, in a static folder, with a unique name based on something like the data record's id field, when keeping track of it's location like that, or is it better to actually store the binary data of the image file in the mySQL database itself, and then sort of stream it back out when displaying the image, and if so, would presume that would be relatively simple to implement, but, OTOH, if you were then using the data to then render static content output for later use, it would, obviously, be better to keep the image content static as well...?

Thoughts/examples?

Stay well
