Photo Gallery Protection

[PlayItByBeer]

I've often heard the saying "If you don't want your pictures 'borrowed' don't place them on the net" But one of my sites www.addotours.com is a photographic tour site and full of great wildlife photo's which I need to advertise... It would burn my bum to do a BV member's site review and see some of my photo's on it!!!

If you place your photo's in a flash gallery are the pictures safe???

Cheers,

Nope - there really is no way to publish pictures on the net that is completely safe. You can watermark them, but there are people who can steal even those and remove the watermarks.

Make sure you have copyright info on the site - and make sure it's obvious - and if you find someone using your pictures, don't be afraid to go after them.

Thanks Bethers,

I'll stay with publishing my photo's it a size big enough to enjoy but small enough to restrict re-use to internet only.
