![]() So, everyone can access pictures like, and so on. Pictures can be accessed directly by loading *-M.jpg in your browser where * is a number between 1 and x. The urls for the galleries can be accessed by opening a url starting with *, for example, in your browser. The only galleries that are not accessible are the password protected ones obviously. The real problem arises because files are named sequentially at Smugmug which means that anyone with just a little bit of technical knowledge will be able to download all images from all galleries set to public and private. If you would use an image host, put up some of your images and set them to private, would you expect them to be still accessible by anyone ? This is apparently the case over at Smugmug where a private setting simply means that the pictures and image galleries are not directly linked from the homepage anymore but can still be accessed by simply entering the url directly in the browser address bar or download manager.
