Storing an image in a directory, then adding image link to database?

Hi, I've read a lot of places that it's not recommended to store binary files in my db.

So instead I'm supposed to upload the image to a directory, and store the link to that directory in database.

 

First, how would I make a form that uploads the picture to the directory (And what kinda directories are we talking?).

 

Secondly, how would I retrieve that link? And I guess I should rename the picture..

 

I'd appreciate any help, or a good tutorial (Haven't found any myself).
