[omaha] Static vs media files in django

[Steve Young]

Thanks.  How about organizing the files - eventually they will be tagged to
make it simple for users to find images and add them to new cards.  Should
I put all the images in one folder or categorize them with sub-folders?
Or even put the images in a database?
