folks, is there a database for a non-commercial use (i.e. relatively cheap)

I think you are looking more for a front end tool than a database. And
why you would think it is even possible to store text and images "in
the same field" is beyond me.
With that said, what kind of front end do you think you need?
Something that is relatively host independent? (like a browser with a
DB backend?) or something more host specific? (e.g MS Access?)
Are you looking for just a datastore (ie a place to put stuff,
unorganized), or a database where there is some structure that defines
where things belong?
You might really only need a filesystem (text files and image files
fit in the same directory nicely.
