Is there a way to prohibit images from being viewed (linked directly to)
unless they are loaded from a page in my application?
I'm working on a project where one can create galleries of images. Some of
these galleries can be PWD protected. Of course, it's easy to protect the
ASPX files, but the images are just images, so one could send a link to a
specific image to someone outside of the secured gallery.
There's nothing terribly high-secure about these images, so it's not a huge
deal as it is, but if there's a way, I'd be interested in looking into it.
I know one option is to move the images outside the WWW folder and then
stream them to the user from a request, but that, obviously, won't allow one
to see the images on the pages themselves.
