Protecting Images Online

think there might be a software out there that prevents a picture from being copied without having to use a water mark i saw a college classmate that had used it but never asked

Thats what I do ... works great

Your easiest solution would be to use as Dan suggested a single pixel GIF, although there's no sure fire way to prevent pictures from being taken. If they can be viewed, they can be taken too.

I would put a watermark and make it a flash gallery

disable right click, make a watermark and also resize the image. If its small thats better than full size imo. Also keep the quality wont hurt as people want to see your work at its best. I dont believe you could prevent a screen print but theres 1 exception. I know you cant save a dvd format using screen print. Since this is on the web, I dont think that will be an option.

jup using flash is the best option plus a watermark

I use small watermarks as well and so far think it's worked for me. I agree that disabling right click is annoying to viewers.
