HOW to SHOW BLOB FILES (jpeg) in phpmyadmin 3.5.

I have tried all means of showing my blob images alongside my other fields but to no avail. All I get is some gibberish writing. I need help serious. Cos I'm on a project. I tried pasting column table, browse MIME, etc. inside the config.inc.php file but to no success. I need someone to walk me through step by step into the configuration.

Thank you.

See Viewing Content Of Blob In phpMyAdmin for more details, but basically what it boils down to is that you cannot view the rendered image directly from phpMyAdmin. The gibberish writing that you're seeing is the binary representation of your image files. This is expected behavior, since the BLOB field (and phpMyAdmin) has no knowledge of what the binary data represents.
