Limiting Users Files in a Database...
I need to know how to upload files into a database. What I want to do is have where every member gets 10 files, 5 pictures and 5 songs. I don't know how to go about doing this and any help is much appreciated.

Quite simply - Don't!
Don't store files in databases! It makes your databases a lot bigger when there's no need to do it. Instead, store the path to the image and use that, along with a count to do whatever it is you need to do... |

Unless you pictures, song or files need captions, or some other metadata, then you wont even need to involve a database.
have 3 folders, pictures, files, songs. inside each folder have a foldername equal to the unique id or username. then using the filesystemobject, only allow 5 files in each folder.
