There's a website where registered users can upload images. What is the best practice: Making server-side folders for each user and place their uploaded pictures there. Or making one big folder with all uploaded images and giving them an id (000000001.png --> 9999999999.png) and register in a database which image belongs to which user?
@O'Niel Database mappings for the sole reason that it's much easier to scale.
All filesystems have a max inode size, you can bust that with that decent scale.
