as you can´t protect anything you publish on the web, you should add a "watermark" to your images for rendering them practically useless to snatchers

My hosting service is HostMonster, and they gave me this script :

quote:

<h1>And here is the 'no right clicks' script.</h1>
You can stop right clicks with a script (copy and paste it from this page if you want to) in the HEAD section of your page.



<script type="text/javascript"> 

var msg="mouse right click disabled.nn(or any message you want)"; 

function click(e) { 
if (document.all) { 
if (event.button == 2) { 
alert(msg); 
return false; 
} 
} 

if (document.layers) { 
if (e.which == 3) { 
alert(msg); 
return false; 
} 
} 
} 

if (document.layers) { 
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN); 
} 
document.onmousedown=click; 

</script>

they did not tell me what I am supposed to change to make it my own, can u tell me?

if you really insist on this despite all our less-than-subtle "don´t count on this" hints, copy the attached script in between your document´s <head>...</head> section, means:

<head>
other stuff here...

copy attached script here
</head>

And that script will break basic usability and accessibility features in
userss browsers and really won't do anything to deter someone that actually
wants your image anyways. As such, don't bother.

Protecting images is a legal issue, not a technological issue.

Don't underestimate the value of a well-placed copyright notice.
Back when the web was new, I used to assume it was OK for me to use pictures
on the web however I wanted unless there was a copyright notice visible on
the page somewhere telling me not to. I'm sure many others have similar
misunderstandings.

That's funny.

A few years ago someone had claimed the domain WIP.COM and on the page,
all they had were the the three letters "wip." That's it! Funny.

Now it's a full blown site.

Actually, now that i've checked it out again, it's back to being a wip:)
