[thelist] Protecting Portfolio Images Online

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

ok explanation done, but that's surely not the best way, so I wait for
the follows up with impatience.

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.
