Wanted: Service Need Help

[haynes8]

is it possible to protect an image on a website so that no one can save it from the page?

 

[Bender]

short answer: no.
diabling right click is useless, and the user can always take a screenshot and cut the image from there.

My suggestion: add a watermark on the picture.

Ok, I am unable to watermark with my software, but it was worth a shot.

Thanks

bender is right...if it can be viewed by a user, it can be downloaded/saved. that includes images, videos (youtube and any other site that uses flash players, etc...)

javascript is never an option for security, as you can simple disable javascript in your browser.

you can restrict people from linking to your image from an external site in order to save your bandwidth, and you can add a watermark to the image to prevent people from passing your images off as their own, but that's about it.

Good luck. If you need any help watermarking, just ask

you can try GIMP - free alternative to industry-standard's Photoshop.
watermarks can be added from server-side scripts (PHP,...)

Thanks guys, I will try and see if I can figure out the watermarking, I am running an old version of photoshop and when I try to register the digimarc it send me to an unrelated page.

Thanks
