  Anyone know how to lock photos to keep them from being copied from the blog?

  Never post them online.

  Sounds frivolous, but in fact, it’s the truth.

  We cannot disable right click and even if we could please be aware that disabling right-click is a useless exercise that creates a false sense of security. Anyone can defeat it in seconds flat. You are far better served by watermarking your images http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2007/10/19/watermark-your-blog-images/ See also > Prevent Content Theft

  don’t put high quality photos on your site – scale them down to small pixel count

  I don’t have much choice in posting photos since I do gun reviews and they need to see what they look like or what the parts look like.

  Thanks, I will start watermarking at least those of any importance I don’t want shared.

  I have reduced the pixel count on most of them.

  Thanks all!
