Disable Windows pop up save function?

Question

Okay, I maintain my own photography website and have already entered the javascript code to prevent anyone from right-clicking to save my images.

I know that there are dozens of ways for people to "steal" my images, I'm just trying to make it as difficult as possible :)

I recently realized that if you hold your mouse over an image, a windows function will pop up asking if you'd like to save, print or email the image.

Does anyone know of a way to disable this feature via java/html/other code????

Answer 1

Photoshop will give you a way to "watermark" an image to prevent this from happening...I've seen it on several photography pro sites and no matter *what* I did I could not sneak a copy of an image from their sites. See for example the photos at http://www.extremeimageology.com/

Answer 2

there is no way to be 100% free of thievery! there are tricks.

watermarking and invisible hidden copyrights are a start.
putting the pictures in the background via css or html fools the foolish.
right click catching only catches the petty thieves.

but I can aways print screen and edit to get just the part I want, and then I have it regardless of how it got on the page! (even flash or quicktime or windows video stuff)

You best bet is to only use partially obstructed pix.

Try AVG. It's free. Internet Security 3010 isn't virus software but actually a virus. Get AVG as soon as you can and I suggest you disconnect the internet and run a deep system scan, which could take hours but should remove the virus.
