I just downloaded "Photo Vault" from the market for $1 to do exactly this. It works great. You can even encrypt photos from the main picture folder without having to apply to the others.
Photovault is great, or you can just use astro or some other file browser to rename the folder and put a ". " in front of the name. In Linux this makes the file /folder hidden...
I prefer photovault myself though, out of the available apps.

LOL, that's exactly what I need it for
Exactly.. she likes the pics I take and now video.... just my friends don't need to see....trying to convert them from iPhone so I let them play with my phone.
Also some times my family want to see pics I take from time to time(just not them pics)
I tried placing I'm a new folder buy the phone searches for all media any folder... go the same with music. All the sounds from asphalt 3d was playing in my shuffle mix last night. Man that sucks

This really needs to be stickied this is like the 4th time I've said this:
Open notepad and save an empty file with the file type set to all and the name ".nomedia" without quotes and with the period. Then place it in the folder where you don't want the gallery or music player (media scanner) to look.
Same problem
My reason for excluding folders is much different. I have music stored on my card. These music folders include album art. This really clogs up the Gallery.
It looks like the ".nomedia" resolution will not solve this.

I really like the samsung gallery, but their are no settings to tweak...
Hi,
Do you guys know a better photo gallery to use with the Tab, as the stock one is sluggish and resizes photos, meaning that if I zoom in I cannot see any details, the pic gets blurry.

Custom Gallery3D build (from source code) by Number22, do a search on XDA.
or:
JustPictures (on the Market).
Cheers
The two I use are:-
JustPictures! ~ View Flicker, Picassa and all pictures on the Tab.
Works much quicker than the Gallery App and displays much more information including the total photo's in any one folder, when the folder was last added to and EXIF data.
Large Image Viewer ~ View photo's at full resolution.
It is quite surprising just how much detail is lost with the stock Gallery App.
Using Large Image Viewer is very quick and displays photo's in greater detail.

True. But I believe that Number22's Gallery3D build fixes this.
Justpictures messes up the wallpaper crop for the tab, the original gallery is better for that...
Original gallery doesnt mess up the crop but suffers from artifacts and errors when cropping. Just pictures doesnt suffer the same but makes incorrect crops. Number 22 gallery apk fixes both but suffers from fc errors. You're doomed!!!!!!

That's the main reason why I prefer Large Image Viewer which does not loose any detail zoomed in.
Large ismage viewer is great. I started using it as the main app for photos.

I use Large Image Viewer to view high resolution images. it's free in the Android market.
Another +1 to Large Image Viewer. I tried Just Pictures and noticed nasty artifacts on my photos.

TY for the tips large image viewer is beautiful
Try out Fish Bowl Photo Viewer. Its cool.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Fish Bowl Photo Viewer has exactly the same problem as most image viewers: it won't show images at full resolution.
I've only ever found two full-resolution image viewers: Large Image Viewer (noted above) and QuickPic (currently available on Market as a beta). The latter has a less buggy interface (hidden files can be toggled back to hidden state, for instance), but neither of them comes with a proper directory browser or cbz/cbr/cb7 support, and neither one can perform the other infrastructure tasks that Gallery does (i.e. selecting crops of images for use in the contact manager), so I have three viewers installed: QuickPic, for high-quality images, the hacked Gallery3D app (to keep other apps working), and Perfect Viewer (for viewing lower-res images, cbrs, and finding images by filesystem path instead of trying to pick them out of a gallery list).
I'm stil looking for a replacement for Perfect Viewer, as I'm not all that enamored of the interface, but the only other similar app I found (ACV) had major dithering artifacts visible that bothered me even more.
Sorry, I misremembered. I stopped using ACV because it didn't fill the screen (and I didn't want to deal with the occasional distortions from Spare Parts). It was jjcomics viewer that had dithering artifacts.
is there a photo viewer that will read 100% of the quality from a >10 megapixel jpg?
most viewers out there top out before and omit the remaining details so the picture quality on screen is below that of the actual picture.
Just pictures allows you to display at original resolution, need to tweak the settings and choose original file size as the option

I use quickpic on my Evo. It doesn't do online accounts like Facebook and Flickr, but I believe it shows you the high res image. Also, it's registered as a gallery app, so you can set it to open pictures by default. Just pictures doesn't do that for some reason. It's very fast and light weight.
just pictures just fails on the large megapixel pictures when "original resolution" is selected.
try Large Image Viewer..it's still a bit buggy but generally works.
I have found QuickPic to be te best on the larger screens. Just wish it could link to my Picasa account.

Quickpic seems good but it doesn't show the level of zoom, so it's impossible to be sure when 100% has been reached.

::sigh:: actually my GF's junk.
This is the way Android camera was designed, to give you a quick jump between camera and gallery. If you don't like it - there are plenty of replacement camera apps on the market, check them out.
You could move the pics and vids to another folder, and disable the folder in the gallery app (push menu button in gallery).
Or read this for more tips: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/hide-private-picture-folders-gallery-android/
your just using the wrong app -
Search for "audio manager" - it is a blue music sign with a orange one on the back,
go into this and you realise it is called hide it pro - download it,
simple to use and works perfectly

pretty sure those will show up elsewhere like in the gallery unless you hide the folder - put a period in the beggining of the name - example .xxxpics

Or put a file called .nomedia in the folder, it won't be scanned for media files by any apps.

He is quite correct, the stock Android camera-app does feature the small thumbnail picture for quick gallery access. I see it on my Nexus One right now.

Can somebody check this out for me?
When I take a burst of photos with the built in app, when reviewing the burst, I can scroll through all the photos. But, in my photo list it shows as one and shares as one photo (the main one).
I see no options in or outside of the burst to save all photos.

I use the HTC gallery and when I open up the burst shot all images are separated as individual pics. But I also see no way to separate them in Google photo app

I found it by searching apk mirror HTC gallery. I'm using gallery version 9.51.755029 download and install from your internal storage
Am I the only one taking bursts?
Sent from my 2PZC5 using Tapatalk
With Google Photos, I can only share the pic designated as the main photo (the thumbnail with the white dot on top). Can't figure out how to split the burst shots separately.
With HTC Gallery v.9.51.744639, the burst shots are automatically separated.
