I think i was using a prepared statement.
And i wonder why i need to check if the contents of this png-file is
really a png-file, or maybe a script. I'm not executing any code that
MIGHT be stored in this file. I'm just storing the contents of that file
in some blob.

I did not check return code because this was a piece of example,
normally is would check return code to see if storing was successful...
