hi there. first of all sorry for my English. i think u got problems in access control. your image gallery is taxonomy. So you should find the module: taxonomy access permission. wish u luck.

Problem:
I use the image module (and its submodules like image import and image gallery) along with flash_gallery on my site. Since I upgraded to drupal 5.7 (from 5.something), only the administrator can see any images. Everyone else gets a frame where the image would be, but with an X instead of the image. It's the same for the image node itself, or the images when you enter through the image gallery. When I look in the logs all I see is this:
Type access denied Date Wednesday, April 9, 2008 - 15:48 User Anonymous Location http://removed/home/system/files/images/filename.thumbnail.jpg Referrer http://removed/home/image Message system/files/images/filename.thumbnail.jpg Severity warning
I thought it was maybe a linux permissions thing, and I tried a whole bunch of different options between changing ownership and permissions, pretty much making ignorant changes to my files directory and everything in it, but no matter what I did, I did the anonymous user could not see the images.
Today I realized that if I go to: admin/settings/file-system and change from private (the way I always have had it), to public... the anonymous users can actually see the images again both in the individual image node and the image/flash galleries. The only problem with this, is that new stuff I add when the filesystem is set to public mode, doesn't show up anywhere for anonymous users. Not just empty frames like before, I mean it doesn't even display on the page. At least when the filesystem is set to private, I can see the picture is there, i just cant see the picture itself. Does that make sense?
This seems to point even more towards an issue with the drupal access control rather than the file system permissions. (BTW, drupal does see the files directory as writable)
The only other peace of relevant information is that a week or two before I upgraded to 5.7, I did install the image_gallery_access module, however the site was working fine until I upgraded (i think)
Any help would be much appreciated. The worst part in all of this is that I messed up my backups so I can't just revert back. I did try reverting back to the old drupal code, but this issue followed me. I am once again on drupal 5.7, with the latest database schema, and EVERYTHING except the images seems to be working fine.
