Protect photos from access with URL

Dear All

I used Zenphoto for a family on-line album. A password is allocated to people that are awarded to access one of these gallery.

I noticed that one user typing a picture URL in the address bar of his browser can see the picture even if the gallery is protected (private) Is there a way to prevent this ?

Thanks in advance.

    First a clearance of Zenphoto terms: "gallery "refers to the Zenphoto installation itself, we are talking about "albums" here.

    It is standard behaviour that you can access unpublished albums and invisible images if you know the url.

    If you really want to protect those you have to use passwords on the album (or the whole gallery). Once someone is logged in the above behaviour will work again. There is no image level protection.
