Abstract
A computer-implemented method for controlling access to digital media involves receiving a URL at a computer server system, decoding the URL, extracting a user ID of a user who submitted the URL and an image ID of an image that is accessible by the server system, using the user ID to determine whether the user who submitted the URL is authorized to access the image, and controlling access to the image by the user based on the determination of whether the user who submitted the URL is authorized to access the image.
