Regarding image association
- Tables you wish to associate with images must have a dedicated image source column (ex.
imgsrc)- The image source column will contain the image FILENAME
- The image directory will be defined during setup
- To use your own default image (used when no association is made), simply add a “blank-profile-picture.jpg” to your image directory
