dint trust me fuly, however i dont think that can be done as it is a massive security risk if you can

If they're not on the same server, you have to ftp into the remote server via php to transfer.

 

Otherwise, just put it in the proper directory.

what is the server environment? 

 

easiest thing to do would be to write a script to sync the files that you trigger after an upload with either system(), exec(), or backticks, depending on what level of interaction verification you need.

 

if both hosts are linux, look into rsync.  Otherwise ftp is your best bet.  If it's not critical the servers are in real time sync, I'd just rsync each dir with a cron job.  even if you need it real time and do the transfer on a per-transaction basis, i would still have a cron job that runs every night or so to make sure the dirs are in sync.

 

if the directory you are using to hold the images is locked down, and you take sufficient precautions, I don't see this being a security risk at all.
