Hi,

I am using IMCE to place images within FCKEditor (latest version). Upload and placement is working without problem - I can see the images in the nodes. But I can see them only as long as I am logged in as administrator. As soon as I am logging out and visit the nodes as a normal guest user, the browser fails to load the images and shows the "image missing" icon instead.

Download method is set to "Private" in Drupal config. If I change it to "Public" the problem exists anyhow. The IMCE path to the images has not been changed from standard: It is set to sites/all/userfiles/images.

OK... I had the upload module enabled which seems to interfere with IMCE's permission settings...

Enable the upload module to set upload quotas for necessary roles... set the quotas... then go to the modules page and disable the upload module. DO NOT Uninstall it or you will loose the quota data from the database which means that IMCE will be blocked by "upload"'s factory quota settings.

Once you have disabled the module, make sure that anonymous visitors can access the necessary web content folders for displaying the main "accessible to all" website in IMCE by creating a profile for anonymous users.

Hope this helps. Might need to look at a way to fix this within the module.

do you have upload.module enabled? if so give users access to "view uploaded files".
check if you have any other uploader module that defines a permission for uploaded files.
Switching to public method won't work becouse your image paths in the contents are still in the form of /system/files/foo.jpg. You should change them after switching to Public method. FYI, switching between download methods bring lots of other problems.
