	I took that theory a step farther... you may want to check it out at my site BodyMod.org. If you go through the pics and look at the newest ones (the one's the don't have any thumbnails yet, the images are "protected" via transparrent gif's, div tags, on-the-fly "mock" branding, background images, javascript, and ASP. ...I really wanted to keep people from getting my photo's without my logo on em. Another site that I use frequently is CDCovers.cc. They have a very interesting way of loading pictures (which I'm now working on incorporating in BodyMod.org). The images aren't protected themselves, cuz you're supposed to save them, but the path to th images is kept secret, which is a big deal. They do somthing like this: <img src="showimg.asp?IMAGE=654632" border="0"> This way, even when viewing the source, the image path isn't revieled. If you know a way to get around this, I'm really interested in your ideas! Anyways...something to think about... . necronom .

	Went to CDCovers.cc which is a PHP site, they are either uploading the images from a database and/or streaming the image from the file system. What they are not doing is a simple redirect. Most ASP sites use a simple redirect like I use at LongBox.com and add a referer check to the script to discourage remote linking. However, if you cut and paste the URL into the browser location the full URL to the image is given. If you stream the information from a database, there is no physical file on the harddrive. Another method, I've seen used, is to store the file in a database and write it to the hard drive when requested. This file rewritten to the harddrive is only good for a couple hours and then it's deleted and every time the file is recreating on the hard drive it's given a different and random name.

	I've seen the layers and java solution to! That works quite well, but you'll have to have Java. Anyway, you could add a watermark to your picture, or ofcourse that annoying text. Splitting it is also nice, but just visually messing the picture up is better. Actually, you'd be better of not displaying any picture at all..

	I wonder if you could arrange layers or divs with multiple pics with only one displayed but when people right-click to save, a different picture is saved - perhaps something like the pics at that tit site Something like a mouse over replacement...

	Sure that's possible, but still, the SRC is in the HTML code. You'll have to use something like Shockwave and it'll work.

	Or, this is my favorite, create a HTML picture! Yes, I've made it up, but it works. It works like this: - Create a table with the picture dimensions - Fill the table with rows and collums of 1px - Change the background color mathing the pixel on the picture I've made a program which does this, Copyright 2003 Floris den Heijer All rights reserved, but it's just like a bitmap, except in HTML.
