you could create a column of type BLOB(Binary Large Object), which is designed for this kind of data - this may be helpful http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7052655/insert-blobs-in-mysql-databases-with-php — Japu_D_Cret, Mar 24 '17 at 13:00

is how to get image from label

You can create a BufferedImage from any Swing component. The basic code is:

BufferedImage image = new BufferedImage(label.getWidth(), label.getHeight(), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
Graphics2D g2d = image.createGraphics();
label.paint( g2d );
g2d.dispose();

Or you can check out Screen Image which adds extra features to the above code to make it more flexible. Then you can just use:

BufferedImage image = ScreenImage.createImage( label );
