Group permissions for viewing? Posting?

[TheHYPO]

Sorry if this is a stupid question - I didn't see anything about it in FAQ...

Is the groups permissions strictly for access of an album? I would like to have an album that only certain users can post to, but anyone can view, but from what I can see, the groups permissions only allows me to limit posting AND viewing to one group...

I have other public postable (to registered users) albums, but certain ones, I want only certain users to post in (and I don't want these people to be given admin status)...

Possible?

any help? is this possible or am I going to have to work around...?

you can determine viewing permissions (per group) on each album individually, but when allowing a certain group to upload to public albums, you can only enable/disable by album. You can't specify that group A is able to upload to album X and group B is able to upload to album Y only.

What do you mean by that? You kind of lost me with that comment...

So there is no way to allow users to view an album without being able to post in it? What I need is one specific group to be able to post in one specific album while the other album(s) anyone can post (while anyone can view any albums, even the first one)... it's not multiple restricted albums like you have with groups A-B and albums X-Y
