Hmmm. I think Flash is definately the way to go... The Screen capture thing, yes well... "A screen shot will give them an image exactly as good as the one you were showing them :)" Well, it'll capture the screen... at THAT resolution, with the image sized to whatever... It means they'll have a crappy copy as you said bounlua. If they have a copy of Flash 5 (the studio, not the player) they can grab your .swf from the temporary internet folder and extract it (if you haven't made it tamper proof)... But then they'll have just single shot frame by frame animations, at the Flash Movie's rezzo... I guess it would be the same for other proggies that import flash format. You can also put into a Director Movie... Make it a Quick Time viewer file... Take it into Photoshop and write "THIEF" hidden in the pixels somewhere... Or just bite the bullet and set your art free :)... It's all just those who know their sh!t, trying to keep their sh!t safe, from those who don't know sh!t, but want to steal their sh!t. If you know your sh!t as well or better than they know their sh!t. They can't do sh!t... That link don't work by the by... do you have an up to date one? Luv Suze.
