Hi,
** Warning: possible annoying newbie question
While trying to allow all users to see an image I uploaded, I changed the Media Folder's status to Live. After doing so, I receive the above warning message for any URI below _media. I've changed the status back to Under Construction but to no avail. How can I get rid of this warning?
Cheers

Where exactly are you getting this error? Also, have you granted Public Read permission to the Media folder?

The URI I’m using is: http://matrixtest/_media/test.png
Both the media folder and test.png have public read permission enabled, both have Live status
This morning I discovered how to increase verbosity and the full error I get is:
–BEGIN–

Yes, indeed. 
Once the image goes live with Public Read, the URL changes. Check the Web Paths screen of the Image, and you'll see the new image URL. It'll probably be something like this:
http://matrix.bacteria/__data/assets/image/5/test.png
This is to allow Apache to serve the image directly, instead of Matrix processing the request. If you want to retain the friendlier URL, you can uncheck the "Allow Unrestricted" option on the Details screen of the Image, but this will incur a processing penalty each time the image is viewed.
aaaah! I'm now that bit closer to getting my head around my source. Thanks!
