Description
I'd be very pleased if someone will put a check/warning/disclaimer/whatever when using imagecache together with the private download method.
It made me lose two days and a little bit of brain before figuring it out.
the results are unexpected: for me it happened that images weren't downloaded correctly and randomly disappeared!

Sorry you ran into problems but it's really hard to understand what your problem is. Could please provide more information?

I am not sure if we are having a similar issue, but we started with a public files directory and later switched to a private method with a folder outside www. The imagecache preset that was created before the move works fine but any presets created after the move do not work. The images do not generate and the folders do not get created. Also the sample preview image of the drupal drop is missing from the preset screen as well.
I will post back if I figure it out but if anyone else knows it would be much appreciated!

I ran into a similar problem as ElijahLynn, but was able to fix it by resaving all my presets. I assume the original presets got hardwired to the prior directory, and by resaving they get fixed.

Ok, sorry for the late response, but I still have to figure how to subscribe to issues.
Anyway, I started configuring drupal with a private download method, then added imagecache module, then I had a strange behaviour with views, where randomly some images will not be displayed (I was creating a list of node teasers). This all disappeared two days later when I switched to public download method.
