I have all my pictures I take on my Myspace right now, but so far, all I've been able to do is this..
www.myspace.com/blinxpix
And I don't think that will really work, is there some way I can disable the right click button without using Java maybe? Or is there some other way to insure my pictures are not stolen? Please help.

No matter what if your photos can be viewed they can be stolen.
Even if you disable the right click/save function, people can always screen print and get your photo that way.
The best things to do are
1) watermark your photos using photoshop or similar software (this way the people taking your photo will have your name and website across it and you get free 'advertising' for your site)
2) Only post low resolution images (Don't post photos with more than 72dpi and then people won't be able to print your photos in good quality).
3) If you see your photo on another site send them an email requesting them to remove it (most people will listen). If they don't consider legal means to make them stop.

The second answerer gave you some valid points. but it is very important to add that whatever image you upload will be at 72 dpi resolution. (the final image size will be around 100kb) That ensures that even if they steal it, a print out of it will have a bad quality soooo, who cares. (they can still be used on blogs and similar) Watermark, even if you drop the opacity a bit, but do watermark. Enjoy! p.s. After reading some other answers: It doesn't matter what you you change in your account, it might make it more difficult but it is not impossible to grab your image (and not with a screen capture) because of the very nature of web pages, content HAS to be delivered to the client computer in order to see it. Soooo, photo is already downloaded. Besides that, taking a look at the source code helps finding the image. So: - Watermark and drop quality to 72 dpi

either dont put them on the internet or take out a photographic register of a business and copyright of every photo you take!
I did this with my film business, you can register a name as a business and then file for a photographic copyright so that every photo you take for the next three years is copyrighted it only costs about 500 dollars all up, worthwile investment!

If you have a photo-editing program put a watermark on the photos that you'll upload to the net.

No, you just have to stop posting them.
I had the same problem.

No. Dont put them on the internet. If you do, put them somewhere a password is needed to access them.

Use http://www.flickr.com
You can sign in using your Yahoo ID, and you can change the photo options, which wont let others save your photos.
