lurkin' around trying to keep images from others, while still have them shown on yer own page seems a bit futile. watermark 'em. other stuff to do is use flash witch I've never done. (due to PPC restrictions) I've done some of this auto open/close windowing js, witch also includes rightclick disable inside the window; inserting an 1x1 gif ontop, keeping ppl away from direct access of the opened php file with a check of witch location it was accessed from. Insert no-cache in the metadata. This worked on every browser except Opera, witch have some option to disable JS without loosing focus from an window. whereas the gif came in handy.... This worked on none to eager ppl, while on the other hand; If this image popup was run one time. it could be used one time directly from the address bar due to the browser cache or the session in witch the script were accessed, dunno. Anyone know? Say, stay with WM.
