    RSS Feed gives direct link to images with download protection on.

    I'm not to familiar with RSS/Atom since I just started to experiment with it. I think it's great for viewers to get an RSS feed when I do an update on my page. However I noticed that RSS feed gives direct access to the picture for easy downloading.

    Which means that the download protection is more or less useless if you allow RSS feed.

    RSS seems to behave differently depending on if I use Firefox or Explorer (have not tried any other web browsers)

    With Firefox 3.0.10:

    RSS: Shows the picture with the directlink in size:very large. (with download not allowed and if I have choosen very large in album view)

    If I want to display medium size in the album, the RSS feed gives direct link to Large size image (800x640px)

    Atom: Also gives a direct link but always to the medium size image (580x450px)

     

     

    Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.11

    RSS: Shows image in mediums size, but without link.

    Atom: shows image in medium size with link.

     

    Also, if the imagelink for a medium size image is accessable, it's easy to change the last digic in the filename to get the very large image.

    Is it supposed to be like this?

     

    best regards

    Andreas
