Image gallery taxonomy filtering

I'm using the Image module to set up two galleries. One I want users to be able to access and upload, while the other one will only be accessed and uploaded to by an administrator. Is there a way to prevent standard users to upload to the admin only gallery. If I delete it from taxonomy, then I don't have access to it. I'd love to just give permissions via taxonomy. I might be missing something really basic on this one. I downloaded Taxonomy Role, Taxonomy Delegate, and tac-lite. Tac-lite gave me permission issues I couldn't fix, while the others didn't do what I needed them to do.

tac_lite doesn't provide
tac_lite doesn't provide "create" permissions according to the use of taxonomy terms, and the others, as you figured out, are not suitable for this. The only options (as far as I know) are:
http://drupal.org/project/image_gallery_access + http://drupal.org/project/acl
or
http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_access
If you are already using some access control module (content_access, nodeaccess, organic groups etc), you'd better not use the above. Or disable the ones you are using in admin/build/modules *and* complete uninstall them from the "Uninstall" tab. Don't use more than one access control modules except if you know exactly what they affect and how, so that you can keep them from interfering with one another.
