Cross platform scripting language and database

[Alma J Wetzker]

Perl comes immediately to mind.  Java is a real outside possibility.

Do you intend to store the image itself into the database or just the name of 
the image with the description?  (Are you using a real database {MySQL, 
PostgreSQL, ...} or data listing?

My personal tendency would be to use a web interface and plug in the features 
I needed behind it in whatever language seemed the best for the job.  That 
would also make it cross platform, if that matters down the road...
