<P><FONT SIZE=2>There is a way to put something like a watermark on images but again with the availability of image packages almost anyone can do a screen capture and 'touch up' the result.</FONT></P>

</P>
<BR>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>You can't prevent a user from downloading your images with ordinary HTML</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>'cause when he sees the image on his screen it's already downloaded.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>He just has to peek into the temporary internet files directory and copy</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>the files (for MS IE).</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>We use webalbum (<A HREF="http://goopers.com/programs/webAlbum" TARGET="_blank">http://goopers.com/programs/webAlbum</A>) to prevent</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>people from downloading images.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>But nothing will prevent screen capture.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hope this helps</FONT>
