How to prevent your web images from been copied
Firstly you have to understand that is impossible to stop people to copy your own images, since
they are displayed on the browser it’s possible to make a copy of it.
As I said there is no way to stop people to do that but is possible to difficult there task even to the
point of their quick from the idea of copy it!
First way, disable the right mouse click on the pages that you have the images to protect ad to
do that use this script between and tags on HTML code:
Other way to do this is to put oncontextmenu="return false;" on tag, like this:
But these two will not disable the Ctrl+C from the browser so this will be efficient with
people that do not know that.
However are others way to prevent and if possible to use them all at the same page.
Second way, use water marks on your images.
This is very easy to do with simple image editors, if you don’t like to cover the image you can
also assign your images with small letters, if you have edit them on your computer they will keep
a digital assign that the program puts on them automatically.
Third way and my favourite, let people copy the wrong image, I use adobe Dreamweaver to do
this trick, you need to know how to work with layers on Dreamweaver, you draw a AP DIV and
place your image in there and them you create another AP DIV on the top of the last one but on
this one you will place a transparent image in .png type to keep the transparency on the browser,
So with this when people try to copy your image they will save the transparent one and they will
be frustrated and quick.
Note all these tricks can be avoided, remember that is impossible to stop people from coping
your images. If they saw them on the browser so its possible.
