Locating supporting files in Joomla - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support


hi, i'm working out directory structure new joomla site , i've been getting mixed messages forum , elsewhere.

firstly understand research photo gallery extensions, photos etc must[i] live in {joomla-root}/images part of directory tree. (i guess java libraries etc).

i read in forums extensions should live outside [i]web-root
directory (which isn't possible on shared server have use).

that's confusion - here's question:
for images, pdfs, etc referenced in joomla articles, matter put them?
    must in {joomla-root}/images structure?
why?
    can in, say, {joomla-root}/images/another-directory?
why?
    can in, say, {web-root}/images/another-directory (outside joomla file structure?
why?

you can put images anywhere in root making directory or putting in existing directory, butu show them in article have select , put picture or file directory...
if want make picture gallery different albums , cannot on shared hosting (due lower space), may try using other websites host pictures... upload there , put code in website's articles...

is wanted ask?
