Instead of thinking whether to store images inside or outside of database,
you should fix it first. (and it seem your database will be very small,
I stored much more data in blobs without any problems)
How is you client written ? (IBX,IBO,PHP,...)
Are you sure your blobs are not automagically conveted to bitmaps ?
You can use some UDF to find out the size of all blobs
in your table.
