Python choice of database

[GMane Python]

For my database, I have a table of user information with a unique
identifier, and then I save to the filesystem my bitmap files, placing the
unique identifier, date and time information into the filename.  Why stick a
photo into a database?

For instance:

User Table:
uniqueID: 0001
lNane: Rose
fName: Dave

Then save the bitmap with filename:
0001_13:00:00_06-21-2005.bmp

To make things faster, I also have a table of filenames saved, so I can know
exactly which files I want to read in.
