Spoiler alert: If you want to figure out how to defeat this silly nonsense for yourself, stop reading now. La tee dah dee dum de dumm... OK so: If the right-click functions are disabled, turn off javascript execution to bring them back. If the image you want is covered by a transparent image, go to view > style and select "no style." If all else fails, press your "print screen" key, or, to get the original image file intact, do control+s and save as "web page, complete." /spoilers Probably the most effective approach to preventing e-z downloading of an image displayed on a web page, is to slice it into a grid of images and reassemble them in an HTML table for display on a web page. This adds a substantial work factor to recovering the original. In the GIMP I find a tool at Filters > Web > Slice that automates this process, and even makes the HTML table code. I forget whether that's a stock part, or something I found in the plugin registry. This image dicing method can be used to make one big image into a quick and dirty table based web page layout, or to to create a fake image map where different regions of one image are links to different addresses. This is much simpler than making a "real" image map that uses a coordinate system to make different parts of one uncut image into links to different addresses. All these techniques are WAY out of style for good reasons. :o) Steve Kinney _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
