Various JavaScript tricks. Among other things it appears they overlay the real image with a transparent image. I would tell you how to do a View Source and find what you want, but then you and/or I might get in trouble for "circumventing a copy protection device", however ineffective it may be. Better, I think, to just take a snapshot and call it fair use.
