Re: protect images from download



Here's one method that should work for your purposes:

http://tapper-ware.net/devel/js/HTML.ImageProtection/

It's not perfect and takes some work to set up but the alternative would be relying on _javascript_ (bad idea for something essential) or server scripts and frankly you don't sound like the person who is able to setup PHP. Look at the source, the comments there should explain how to do it. However this method requires you to alter your images. Again this could easily be scripted but you'll have to ask somebody else to do it. Specifically, you most split the image in 4x4 blocks like this

[ 01 ][ 02 ][ 03 ][ 04 ]
[ 11 ][ 12 ][ 13 ][ 14 ]
[ 21 ][ 22 ][ 23 ][ 24 ]
[ 31 ][ 32 ][ 33 ][ 34 ]

And then reassemble it the wrong way around (NOT mirroring/flipping: you have to switch the blocks)

[ 34 ][ 33 ][ 32 ][ 31 ]
[ 24 ][ 23 ][ 22 ][ 21 ]
[ 14 ][ 13 ][ 12 ][ 11 ]
[ 04 ][ 03 ][ 02 ][ 01 ]

Just try to save the images and look at them. You'll see what I mean.
