[thelist] Protecting Portfolio Images Online

[Jono Young]

I would like to post a bunch of photos, I have taken, on my online
photography portfolio, and I am wondering if there is a way for me to make
them non-downloadable.

In other words, I don't want the users/viewers to be able to
Right(PC)/Control(Mac) Click, drag-and-drop, etc. the images and download
them to their hard drive.  I can put a water mark in the photos, but I am
looking for extreme control here.

Is there a way to make the images the user would attempt to download,
download as another image of my choice?  For example, when the user tries to
download one of my images, the download would somehow redirect to a fake
image, or perhaps force the user to download just a spacer.gif file instead?

I think some or all of this may be possible, but perhaps only through my
ISP...or perhaps not?  Any suggestions?

Thanks,
