Claudia,

They don't cause any more fragmentation than any other data type, but then today I would not store them inside the DB, I'd be more tempted to use the BFILE way.

Do you recommend storing images in an oracle database or just storing the directory path to them instead. Somebody told me it would cause database fragmentation if I store images or binary data in databases??
