Certainly you shouldn't preallocate names and store them in the form -
that's just asking for trouble. If you're using MySQL and have an
autoincrement id column, then you can find the value used by the last
insert with mysql_insert_id().

If you've got a large number of files, you should definitely think
about splitting this into directories:
function get_dir($filenumber, $level)
{
$out='';
for ($x=0; $x<$level; $x++) {
$out.=substr($filenumber,$x,1) . '/';
}
$out.=substr($filenumber,$level);
return($out);
}
.....
get_dir(10203, 3) = '1/0/2/03'
get_dir('94522378.gif', 4) = '9/4/5/2/2378.gif'

You're going to let people upload php code to your server! Be very
careful!! If its inside the doc root and you don't reconfigure your
webserver it means the code wil be executed!!!

no - use move_uploaded_file() instead - RTFM
