Preventing dowloads of my photots from my webpage

How do I make a message say "copyrighted image, unable to download" or what ever it should say when a viewer right clicks an image to download it? I have been on some sites where if you right click to download the image this message comes up?

Hi D616,

That is not possible as they have to be download to be viewed in the
browser.

All such schemes are doomed to failure. For more info,

Hi.

Check this out: there are a few notes.

1: Save yourself some time, and forget about securing
your photos. If we want to, we can get around it.

2: Your question specifically inquired about a pop-up
dialogue box when users right-click on your photo. To do
this, use the photo properties. I like Visual Basic, and
just to be cute about it, I send the message to the
Balloon from the MS Office buddy - because people are
more likely to listen to a gay Paper Clip...

Anyway, Use the image's GotFocus property, and respond
with a MsgBox or a Balloon.


DescriptionOfErrorMessage = " Hey, go get your
own pictures! " & vbLf & _
" Contact your System Administrator for
assistance, and have a nice day!" & vbLf

With Assistant.NewBalloon
.BalloonType = msoBalloonTypeBullets
.Icon = msoIconAlertInfo
.Heading = DescriptionOfErrorMessage
.Show
End With

Um...yeah. Play with that until it does what you want.
I think you can initiate it with GotFocus...but that's
another group.

Love & lost packets,

Matthew
