there are javascript all over that do this .. of course, if someone has
disabled JavaScript in their browser, it won't stop them, but it will most
of your audience. Try here: http://www.javascripts.com

One way of doing this (which is probably very easy to beat knowing me) is to
just put empty layers over the top of the images. So you can still see the
image but you can only download/drag off the layer.

This could be wrong but it seems fairly reliable to me so far.

does that work with all viewable image formats?

hmmm. good question. It seems to work within the way I use it as in for gifs/jpegs etc. Whether it works for all I've got no guarantee.

I can grab it from my browser's cache file on my hard drive.

When a webpage is viewed, the images are automatically downloaded to the
browser cache on the local hard drive.

Yeah I was fairly confident there would be something like that. It's kind of
like most things, 90% of people won't know it though.

So basically, even with the javascript coding, theres no way of making your
images 100% uncopy-able (is that even a word?)

Well, what can you do? Such is life.

Don't upload them to the web is as close to uncopyable as you can get :-)

Does /what/ work? The short answer is no, because at the end of the day,
anybody can push the PrintScreen key.

- Use low-resolution images
- watermark them
