photo stealing - flickr solution? (2 posts)

    I know that generally there is no easy way to prevent people from "stealing" photos that are published on a site.

    However, I was wondering whether anyone has come across a solution similar to what flickr does? If I understand correctly they place a spaceout gif on top of the image so anyone who right clicks and tries to copy a photo that way gets the gif instead.

    Can this be done in Wordpress?

    I have not tried it but you can give this a try

    As the description says "Nothing is foolproof". If someone can view your images, they can make a copy.
