I use Gallery myself for my picture collection and this can be configured easily. As in, you can allow users access to all versions or just the 'resized' versions. This can be done through groups or specific users. I usually only allow people to access the resized versions. It does support resizing on-the-fly, but only to the sizes you actually configured for that particular photo/album/... the on-the-fly bit is only done if the requested size doesn't exist yet, eg. it will only do it once (unless you clear the derivatives folder ;) ) -- Joost
