  1. I've seen some websites that have a photo gallery on the site, but don't allow users to download the photos, but I'm not sure how they do this. Clicking on the picture brings up a "gallery" of photos, but they cannot download from that screen (or the earlier screen). Does anyone know how this works?They do it with Flash photo galleries. But you can still take a screenshot of anything that appears on your screen, so it's basically impossible to show someone an image via the internet but prevent them from copying it.If you are concerned about users taking your images, you should probably add a watermark and copyright notice to each one. At least then, no one can claim that they thought the image was public domain.If you really have to, put a watermark on it. If you want people to see it, they're already downloading the photo.Viewing photos on a webpage *is* downloading them. All you can do is make it hard for unsophisticated users to save them. Anybody with half a clue will just press the print screen button and paste it into paint or photoshop.How does Flickr do it? Even if you disable Flash, right-clicking a photo does not give Save Image or Save Background Image options It looks like they are just using a standard img tag so I assume it's some fancy CSS or Javascript around it.
