here is my implementation of the technique : http://www.rfaucilhon.com

I know it won't fool someone like me, but it would for a lot of other
people. Plus they would download a bunch of photos, go away and when
they will watch the pictures, they might even have no way of finding
back my site ;-) stupid them ;-)

one easy thing, is to make your image as a table cell's background. then
have in that cell a spacer.gif with the width and height of your image.
That way when right clicking the user will download the spacer.gif but
while downloading a spacer.gif could fool someone once, at the second
attempt on another picture, it will be obvious that there's something
wrong (the OS will ask for overwriting) so you should have as many
spacer.gif that you have original images and name them in pair. images
should be JPG and spacers GIF. so image1.GIF is the spacer for
image1.JPG
