I would like to create a image uploading service (yes, i am aware of imageshack, photobucket, flickr...etc) :)
I have seen only imageshack show the directory names ("img294", "1646") of where the image is located, in the same way - i would like to do this.

1) Are there any security issues I should be aware if i take this implementation?
2) How do these sites come up with short unique identifiers ("kd5")?
Thanks all for any advice and help.
