Title: Access control for hi-res images?
Post by: ragweed on May 04, 2004, 07:42:18 PM
I was wondering if there was any way to allow access to all the images with the exception of the high-resolution versions? I have a user that would like visitors to be able to view any of the images in their galleries, but not the high-resolution originals. They would like to limit access to the hi-res images to a specific "higher-privilege" group. Is this possible with CPG?

I've considered using mod_auth_mysql and <FilesMatch>require valid-user</FilesMatch> to limit access to the high-res images, but it seems like this level of hackery is a bit extreme..  :-\
