What naming convention does mysql use for database files? Where does it put them?

MLH
I asked mysql to create a database named credifree (see below)
and later checked for filenames on the system like *credifree*
but I found nothing indicating that mysql created any filenames
like *credifree* - ideas as to why not?

From the captured screen-text below, you can see that the
credifree database does indeed exist...

mlh@appserver mlh $ mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 4 to server version: 4.0.22

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

mysql> use credifree
Reading table information for completion of table and column names
You can turn off this feature to get a quicker startup with -A

Most of the sites that I build have to deal with security at some point, and this means that somewhere in the database there needs to be a list of Users. The naming convention that I (and most everybody I've ever worked with that cares about such things) use dictates that a table should be named according to what it contains, and that this name should be singular. So, Customer, User, Entry are all good, while Customers, Users, Entries...

It seems there are tons of sights with naming conventions but none seem to contain a complete list for all the objects in .Net. Is there such a...

Hi, I need to store lots of product images. I was thinking of storing the paths in the database but overtime it may become cumbersome as I'll be dealing with lots of images. I would need to display both a thumbnail and large versions. The average size per image is 400kb and the max display is 1702 by 2542. Would SQL Server be a good alternative?
