I don't know if you're aware; but there's a way to (somewhat) protect pictures on websites. I've seen this on some art sites when looking for pictures. When you right click on the picture -- it WON'T let you save it. I don't know exactly how this is done, but maybe a little research and you can find out how. Of course, there are ways around this, but protecting it this way would discourage most people from ripping pix. Good luck.
That would prevent DownLoading of images, such as for your own private use.
As far as Linking of images, since I heard that it could use up band-width, someone uses http://____.org/image.php?image=________ or whatever.
I found this way of disabling right click on your web-pages so people can't take photos from your page. Below is the code. Just copy and paste this code between the
!-- Start of no right click script --
!--
var message="Sorry, no menu please!";
function click(e) {
if (document.all) {
if (event.button == 2) {
alert(message);
return false;
}
}
if (document.layers) {
if (e.which == 3) {
alert(message);
return false;
}
}
}
if (document.layers) {
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);
}
document.onmousedown=click;
// --
!-- End of no right click script --
This could prevent anyone from knowing where the secret location of your image is, so they don't know where to link!

unless they are stupid, there is no way you can prevent it FULLY - because how can you show people the picture without them (their computer) first knowing where to look, then you can always just view their code or look in temp internet files.
only way to prevent rips is to never put it up. win2k all you have to do is drag your cursor over the pic and theres an icon u can click to save it, u dont even need to right click. even if that wasn't there, you can always press "print screen" and then go to MSPaint, and "paste" and there's your entire screen, with the picture on it.
Those endless possibilities in this computer age. Almost useless to write protective code, huh?
Here's one way prevnet an image from being saved when someone right-clicks it. Modern browsers support "layers" in the html coding of a page. Advanced web design software, like DreamWeaver, makes it easy to create these layers (in Adobe's GoLive I believe it is called floating boxes). After detemining what size your image is, you need to create a tranparent GIF image the exact same size. Using the "layers" property you then place the clear image over top of the real image on your page. Then a right-click only selects the clear image to save to the "thief's" hard drive.
Does the transparent GIF have to be the "exact same size"? Can't you make it larger than the picture that you are trying to protect? After all, it will still be completely covered!
Yea man, that would work. A little more added protection never hurts!
Cheers for that, but you ever heard of the 'Print Screen' key?
