I created a test vb5 forum on a new host. I used a copy of my vb4 database and installed the vb5 software. My image uploads are disconnected. The vb5 installation is set up for database storage of attachments, and the vb4 is set up for file system storage of attachments.

Can I just change my vb5 attachment storage from database to file system and reconnect the images?

The image links all indicate filedata/xxxxxxx

Yes, make sure that you set the new path for the attachment directory, as it wil differ from the old hosts path.
