title: Rails: What column type to use for saving uploaded images?
body: <p>This is my first Rails project. I'm a bit stumped on how image files should be saved in the database, since they take up a lot of space. My site is going to be one where people upload a lot of images. In my migration for creating the pictures table, would I save the image file name as a string? Also does anyone have hints on where to save the images (assets, public, etc)?</p>
  
  <p>Sorry, I'm just a noob looking for a little guidance.</p>
