A public picture can be viewed by all guests (users who enter your email address in the guest login field on the FotoTime home page). A private picture can only be viewed by you (a user who enters both an email address and password in the login/password field on the FotoTime home page). You can also send an invitation to a specific user which gives access to a specific album, as well as access to Private pictures. Finally, you can turn off all guest logins by going to Admin Options->Edit Preferences and uncheck the "Allow guests to login from home page" checkbox. In FotoAlbum to change your security settings on a picture, just select the picture then select the "Published - Public" or "Published-Private" menu item from the Web menu.
A. Your private pictures are very secure and cannot be accessed or downloaded by anyone unless they have logged into your account with a password, or you have sent them a link that allows them to view the private pictures. In order to make all pictures more secure, they have been put behind our login framework so that hackers can't just guess the URL for your pictures.
