I would create an additional module as a glue of private upload, imagecache and imagefield module. Unfortunately i don't know how API to look :(.

Three points in my project.
Imagefield have an additional checkbox private (Private upload settings).
Imagecache preset have an addiotional private(watermarked)/public option in the settings.
Some changes to imagecache behaviour.

Example: get /files/imagecache/private_preset/private_folder/img.jpg

private_folder is the private folder? YES (NO? show image!)
private_preset is the private preset (watermarked)? YES.
Get image.

Example2: get /files/imagecache/public_preset/private_folder/img.jpg

private_folder is the private folder? YES (NO? show image!)
public_preset is the private preset (watermarked)? NO.
Error.

I hope to receive some help to create my module or create a patch for these modules. Thanks a lot.

Imagecache is just a pipeline. You ask - you get. Don't want it? Don't ask.

I don't agree so totally. Some bad users could access to some preset with no watermarks and download the "no-watermark" image in a simply manner. I would add a protection in these modules.
