protecting images online
It’s impossible to keep someone from stealing your photos, illustrations or images and using them for evil or, just as bad, claiming them as their own. Sometimes making it a tiny bit harder will weed out the lazy evil-doers.
It might be obvious to everyone else, but I started creating a blank div a little larger than the biggest image with a high z-index and absolutely positioning it over an image gallery. The div acts like a wall when someone tries to right click/control click on the image to save it. As long as it doesn’t overlap with any links or navigation, the div is invisible.
I don’t use it on my site, but it eases the minds of some people when they can’t steal their own images from a website I built for them.
Just throwing that out there in case anybody could use it.
