as in you don't want people to steal them?
the image has to be passed to the browser, so it's gonna be tough. you may
be able to pull it off in specific browsers, but you can't stop someone from
writing their own 'browser' that copies the file to disk as it receives the
image.
i've got a friend that does system work for a place that has artist
portfolio's online so folks can browse images and then purchase the rights
to use them. they've had some problems with folks not paying (imagine that).
they've written a perl program to snoop thru logs and try to track down
folks stealing^w using images without paying for them. it's a fairly
involved process and definitely isn't exact.
anyone else?
