Is there any way to hide all photos (all uploaded media elements) from accounts having lowest access privilege (i.e. guests)?

I managed to block them from all editing operations ("read-only" mode), but I don't know how to hide all photos for them.

Could this be done automatically, at privilege level, or must I go through all uploaded multimedia and set this access / attribute manually per ich file separately.

My only problems with photos is people "pirating" them, and watermarking the photos serves to give me credit plus refers folks back to my website.
Control Panel > Manage Family Trees > Watermarks

@Gustine: Works like a charm. Pity, that I can do this generally for all multimedia and must do this piece-by-piece for facts (i.e. separate privilege for births, deaths etc.; no general privilege for all facts), but you can't have everything

@thomas52: No, that's not a case. Privacy is the only concern in my case. I don't want to show photos (and other sensitive data) about my family to strangers.

Living people are private (show to members) by default.
Dead people are public (show to visitors) by default.

You can change the setting for dead people to "show to members". Now, guests will not be able to see anything (I think this is what you are asking for).
