PHP - Store Images in SESSION data?

Question

Can you store an image in a PHP SESSION ?

I have a multi-step registration process using PHP on my site. On one of the steps, the users can upload their company log

Yes, you can store an image in a PHP session. Get it into PHP as a string (i.e. binary data) and then you can put it in the session.

You will want it to only be as big as it needs to be and you need to delete it as soon as you don't need it because large pieces of information in the session will slow down the session startup.
