Now if you feature a photo inside a password protected gallery, we will use that photo instead of the Locked Gallery image. We also added a red minilock icon to the end of the gallery name, so users will not get confused if they follow a link on your homepage and end up at a password screen. i also made it easy to get rid of the icon or replace it if you are a pro; simply cut and paste the code below into the style sheet section of your cobranding:
.locked {
width: 9px;
height: 12px;
background: transparent url('/img/minilock.gif') no-repeat;
margin-left: 5px;
}
Replce the /img/minilock.gif to the pathway of your new image. It should be 9 pixels wide by 12 pixels tall though. Let me know if you need help.

I love it, now I'm gonna go use it.
Nice feature, JT!
If you don't mind my asking: are there other css styles we can set/modify?
Is there a list somewhere? Or this is a first one?
Thanks!

I will be going through the site shortly though and adding more classes and areas that pros can customize on their own.
Cool!
Can we also get a little icon to indicate that a gallery is private? Something displayed only when logged in would be fine with me. Perhaps a picture of glasses with an X through them, or something cleverer...
I hope your "oh well" isn't to indicate you don't like the new feature. If it is, youc an just un feature the photo. I quite like it, and to me this is no minor upgrade, but it's HUGE.
Just out of curiosity, why do you see this as a HUGE advancement? What can you do with this feature?

I think that if you want to protect your photos from being viewed by the public, you need to make them private and use sharegroups.
By the way, what does featuring a photo do in a password protected gallery in the past? I thought the only point of featured photos was to show up in the listing of galleries, and before this change, password protected galleries only showed the little lock picture.
