 * Sorry Jeff, but my question relates to the free version.

 * I’m asking if access to the entire media library can be restricted when a user
   chooses to upload an image.
 * To make my question a little clearer:-
 * At present in the free version of the plugin at least, any logged in user when
   uploading an image is given full access to the entire media library.
 * If just one of those users had any degree of malicious intent they could in fact
   delete any or all images on my site if they so wished.
 * I have in the past used other front page plugins that only allow the user to 
   see a limited view of the media library. They are restricted to only being able
   to see the images that they have uploaded personally and not the entire library.
 * Can this degree of access be turned off or restricted in the free version.
 * There could be any number of sensitive files in the library too and unlimited
   access could pose a security risk to any site using this plugin unless access
   can be restricted.

 * This was a sticky topic, not a support thread. Also please keep the conversation
   on the original thread. Gonna have to close this ticket now and post a new sticky
   topic. I will reply to your post on the original thread. Please do not post again
   on the sticky topic. Thanks.
