texte = Hello, I have a job coming up where I will need to make an effort to protect images. Here are the things I know of:1.) watermarked images 2.) copywrite text 3.) 72 PPI images (obvious) 4.) disabling the right click (controversial) 5.) In the source put a comment about copywriting. 6.) copywrite your images.I have also heard about placing a transparent gif on layer over the image... doesn't prevent someone from looking at the source, but it does help with hinderance.Another thought is that some browsers (IE 5 for exampe [I believe]) adhere to w3c suggestions that when a page is arrived at via method=post from a form AND when the http mime headers have an expired expires value, the source is not available to the user.Beyond this, I don't know of any other way to protect the images becauseit seems its always availabe either via screen shot or the source.What are your thoughts?Thanks, Donovan ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
