I'd like to allow individuals to view images but not copy and paste them or print them. Can you share images this way? If so, how do you go about it? FTP? My own website?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Miggie

The only way i can think of is to use a Watermark on your images.

You can't really stop people copying & pasting / screen printing etc etc.

You can use Javascript on a site to disable copying, right-clicking - but Javascript can be disabled - and the image would be in their browser cache anyway.
You could embed the images in say, Flash (but that can be decompiled) or Shockwave Flash - much harder to get the images, I don't know of a way, but I'm sure it can be done if someone really wants to.

Watermarks can be removed depending on how unobtrusive they are - you could stick a huge watermark, basically a tag pasted over the image, on top of the pic, but too much and there's no point even showing it, and too little and anyone proficient in Photoshop could restore it.

I suppose the only way to secure your images would be to not share them!

Howdy and welcome...

AOU is mostly correct... if you don't want your images copied...don't put them on the net...

watermarks can be cloned over...

best solution is to keep the file size small/low quality so if copied/printed they are of not much value
