Hi Chris,

To be honest, any code-related protection can be outdone. For example, lets say you used a Flash gallery software with no way of right clicking on the picture and saving it. Still, one could take a screen shot of their browser window (hitting PrntScrn in Windows) and then pasting that into Photoshop and cropping out everything but the picture.

Really the only way that I can see that would solve anything is to watermark the crap out of it.That's still not 100% foolproof, but most thieves won't be willing to take the amount of time needed to get rid of the watermarks.

I'm just barely an amateur photographer, but I've worked professionally for over 10 years in the ISP business. I've had a few customers ask this very question. To be honest, if you want to be 100% safe, the only thing you can do is not post them. Other than that the only advice I can give is present them via Flash (or some other way that prevents right clicking and saving) and watermark them.

I know, it really sucks to have to worry about art thieves!!
