Good Morning Everyone...

Does anybody have a code for protecting pictures from people saving them to their HDD or printing them off your site? I have seen on some sites were you can enlarge the picture from a thumbnail but when you try to print it or save it you get an Error and can't do either...

Thanks in advance

You could do all sorts of scripts so that pics wont be saved... Guess what, theres still a method you could copy these pics, you could save the whole page with pics, better yet press Prtsc...
Well all I need to do is put a watermark on my photos, have a copyright decleration on my site pertaining to my pics. Then post a low res version for display and deliver a better pic upon order and payment... and if i ever see my pics being used without my consent, I still have the master copy with all the time stamps and exif data on it, which is a good basis to sue the pertpetrator...
BTW I tried all protection before figuring out the best way...
