It probably doesn't make a difference, except if your /var partition (or
/home for that matter) won't hold the photos directory as well as the
regular data that is held there. But I do remember that in OpenBSD you
can save your /home directory when upgrading , so there's something to
keep in mind.
Hope this helps

Hi,
I have a photo collection which I would like multiple users to be
able to access, and I would like to do this by storing the files in a
central location on my disk and linking /home/$USER/photos to that
directory.
Where is the most appropriate place in the filesystem for this
directory? I've considered both /home/photos and /var/photos, but
I'm not quite if one is better than the other, or if it just doesn't
make a difference.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill
