Protection
  • Hi, can anyone tell me if you can protect your images within your website as someone said to me that they had been able to lift one of mine!? :-(

    The problem is all a user has to do is PRINT SCREEN on their keyboard and that will get your image so there is no sure fire of protecting your images i am afraid :-(
  • Oh right. Thanks. How is it that on certain people's pics on the net when you try to copy and paste they come up that you are unable to do so as it's a protected image? I want to be able to do this also. :0)

    When you are choosing your picture, there is a tick box in the editor for downloading. Make sure this is unticked, if it is ticked, the image will be able to be downloaded.

    Another solution you may want to adopt is putting a watermark onto your image - a very faint 'copyright Catherine KP' or something - not enough to waste the enjoyment of the image, but just enough so that if someone takes it, it is clear where it came from.

    Do you have an art package - can be easily done in that - open the image, create a new layer, insert a text box, make the transparency on the text very high (or to a level that suits you) save, flatten, bob's your uncle :-)
