Does anyone but me remember the VERY short period of time that rendo DID have a "no right click script" running?  It was...god, years ago.  It was shot down FAST, because it annoyed the hell out of those of us who use the right mouse button to navigate through the site, AND it slowed down the whole site in general. 
Putting the onus on Rendo to protect YOUR work is completely irresponsible and pretty illogical.  If you want your work protected from rippers, you have 2 choices.  Don't upload it, or watermark it.  Forcing a free-to-joiners website where you place your art on THEIR servers, virtually for free (you don't have to purchase from the marketplace to use the galleries), to protect your work is like expecting the security guard at the mall to arrest and jail a theif running out of your store.  The most they have ('round here, anyway) is a billy-club, and most of them are out of shape.  The most they can do is call the cops.

And, there's my 5cents.
