Given the sort of race conditions and problems brought up here, it occurs
to me that *MAYBE* http://php.net/mkdir would help, as I believe it's
atomic, and will either succeed or fail.
You are then creating a unique directory name for each image, and you put
the image inside that directory.
That may be even more problematic than using the SQL, however...
Still, worth pondering, I think.
