Is there a way to have a password protected folder for pictures you dont want other people seeing? Say the gf sends you some pictures for your eyes only...

You could make a new folder and exclude it. Then now one will see it unless you explore on the media card from your phone
LOL havent you learned from miley cyrus, keeping pictures "just for you" on your MOBILE device is a bad idea
haha yes, but im not worried about that right now. my roommate and a bunch of other marines love to play with my phone so i gotta keep them safe or i wont get anymore!

Those "pictures" you are getting are passing through VZW's system somewhere.....
Email them from your phone to an email account not linked to your phone (Gmail, etc.) then just delete them off it....that's what i do with those types of pics when they get sent to me.
They go through vzw systems but no copies are Sept or archived. Once delivered its removed from the server.

Thats a thought though. How private are our conversations, texts, pics? Are they really deleted off the server or is someone in a back room checking through each and everyone making sure we aren't setting something up in code?

They are kept but I'm not sure how long, probably only for a month just in case there's a bill discrepancy.
A few months ago, when I had my Pearl, I was having a problem receiving picture messages (turned out there was an actual bug in the Pearl's OS that was causing it) and when I was doing some tests with the VZW tech, they stated that when a text or picture is delivered via sms, it's removed from VZW system. The only time it is kept on VZW's system is if the phone does not support picture messaging (like the Blackberry World phone) and it gets stored in that users account so that they can retrieve those messages online.
I am assuming that this is true as during the testing I kept asking him to go into my account and check the messages that were sent to me and to try and resend them and he said that was impossible as the only record that they have is that one was sent, they can't resend as its deleted from the server once it successfully sends the message.
One poster said that the picture messages are stored on the server for a month, that's only true if you use the web service to share your pictures with people who do not have a picture message capable phone or your phone does not support it.
I was wondering this same thing, With my windows mobile on my Q it was easy, you can just hide/unhide pics very quickly. I see you can hide on the storm but how in the world do you unhide from the phone?
I am very interested in doing this as well for obvious reasons lol.
this has annoyed me a lot i have all sorts of nudie pics from ladies of questionable repute on my phone and i have to worry about my video and picture folders
So theres no way to hide the entire FOLDER without going and hiding each and every photo?
No, not that I've found. If you click on "Properties" for a folder, whether in the explorer or image viewer, the option for "Hidden" is there but grayed out and unclickable.
You can hide a folder with your pc when your berry is connected...then, its hidden on the blackberry. You just use the method above to unhide it. *has hidden folders*
