I would recommend using the Drupal open source content management platform (www.drupal.org) as it integrtes seamlessly with MySQL and has easy to install, configure, and use image/photo upload functionality known as Modules.

I think this is a task better accomplished with PHP or JAVA.

This site that has a simple form to do that.

You may be able to incorporate this into a page on your site.

Generally, coders r taking this kind of code in 2 ways….either upload picture somewhere on the server / store the url in Mysql, or store the picture in mysql directly (as a blob). It could be possible to let users upload picture & store full content in the DB as a blob / can store the path to the file in a varchar field.

Remember, OS version is also an important part, which u did not mention here !
