Hi Bruno,

The only part of the Images API that provides an external URL is
get_serving_url. If you want to control access to image blobs, don't use
that functionality, and serve images yourself (using the blobstore serving
support) after performing authentication checks.

images are in a secure place, but some one hava a 1 / 2^256 chances to get

As Nick said. If you want secure don't use the image service use the
Blobstore and authenticate.  Image service works like a CDN with no
authentication so that assets can be served very quickly.  This is the trade
off, Faster serving, no ability to restrict by user.
