    I need to try and reduce the amount of image theft on my site.

    Their seems to be 2 main ways of doing this.
    1. disable right click using a javascript
    2. put a transparent image over the image display.

    The second seems to be best??? … I have seen the following trick for another gallery and was wondering if someone can help me adapt this code to work on RSgallery…

    in imageview.tpl.php change ….

    < img alt=”<? print $short_desc;?>” width=”<? print $width;?>” height=”<? print $height;?>” src=”<? print $image;?>” border=”1″ style=”border-color: #888888;”/>

    to

    <? echo ‘ < img src= “transparent.gif” alt=” ‘. $short_desc. ‘ ” ‘.
    ‘style=” width:’. $width.’px; ‘.
    ‘height:’. $height.’px; ‘.
    ‘background: url(‘.$image.’)”‘;?> border=”1″ style=”border-color: #888888;”/>

    will this work? … what do I change where?

    any better ideas? welcome

    also … I am willing to force all users to register if they want to browse galleries … does this help?

    many thanks

    Both options still allow viewers to copy/print screen if they have screen capture software.

    Use a water mark as well

    I use the watermark … but …. it doesn’t display on the front page slider …. or when you are in the gallery looking at the slideshow … no watermark …… hence its too easy to abuse and in both cases they get the image with no watermark.

    I just trying to stop the 80% ….

    If the above options don’t work out then I’m going back to embedding a watermark in the image before I upload then turning the gallery watermark off…

    Did you ever figure out an adapted version of the code? Or any way to stop photo theft?
