Rule #1: Avoid general fields, AT ALL COST
Rule #2: If you absolutely need to use a general field, see rule #1

General fields seemed like a good idea when they arrived, but experience has showed that they cause more trouble than they fix. Instead you can use a blob field, or separate image files with only the file name and relative path in the table.
