    I have had a quick look at there does not appear to be a clear answer on this?!

    I have prevented users from right clicking and saving images, but if they left click it opens up the image where they are then able to right click and save-as?

    Any idea how I can prevent this?

    Many Thanks!

    There’s really no way to prevent people from copying/downloading images. If you are trying to protect professional/commercial photos, you can “watermark” them and/or post low res or small enough versions that deter people somewhat. And, of course, post copyright. But it pretty much goes back to “if you don’t want it copied, don’t put it online.”

    Ah thats such a pain, I already know of one person who has taken the pics! Shall watermark them all from now on.

    I would also enable right click. It demeans users. It treats every user as a criminal.
