yes - but there is only one way to achieve this in a foolproof way - Don't put them on the web.
If the pictures are available through the website then people will be able to copy them.

No, you can't protect them.
If they can see it on their screen, a copy of the picture is in their computer's memory and/or in the cache. You may be able to stop people from right clicking in some browser using JS (which can be turned off in most (all?) browsers).
Even if, by some voodoo that obviously can't exsist, stoped them from dowloading an image -- but still gave them the ability to see it on the page, they could always take a screen shot, and crop out the image.

It should be the web design forum:
forum 253
kundrol actually posted his question in #235, which is the Borland Inprise forum.

I haven't used it but sites that use "java applets" to display images with the ripple effect may reduce ppl taking your images, not sure about printing though. But the increased load time would be rediculous if you have more than a few images.

Oops, that's my fault I mixed up the numbers and put 235 instead of 253.
Sorry
