  Hi!

  I can right click and choose ‘save as’ or ‘copy’ to copy off any images and contents from a blog.

  Is there any way to prevent readers from copying or saving the images and contents from a blog?

  Thanks!

  Hi,

  No. Anything that can be seen can be copied. Tricks that claim to work, don’t.

  You can disable right-click, save as on your blog on all images EXCEPT the most recent one by using Monotone or Duotone themes. But it’s very, very easy to work around.

  I’d like to suggest that you use one of the free online watermarkers for images. There are links to 5 that I have tried out in the post on my blog titled “Watermark your blog images”.
