This doesn't imply that the viewer can do what ever they wish with the data and/or photos. I've read several of the above replies and a few need to understand that copyright laws do protect digital format. Once it is written, it falls under copyright laws. It doesn't have to be registered like in the old days, however, it would be beneficial to do so. A viewer having these files in their broswer cache is expected; however, it is not expected for an author to have their work copied and posted all over the place. This is where the violation has been committed and the violator can be sued. Bottom line, it's what the viewer decides to do with the data which may or may not get them in trouble.

Yes we all know people can get around these protections. So what? People can get around the locks on my doors but that doesn't stop me from using them to deter that happening. When people take stuff from a website that is clearly marked NOT FREE then that is THEFT - just like taking an apple from a market stall without paying is called theft. There is no difference. And get over this "everything on the net must be free" rubbish. Some stuff is free - some isnt. Why should it always be free just because it's on the internet??? I like free stuff as much as anyone but it's not some inalienable right of all internet users. How old are you people? Do your own artwork or pay for it to be done if it's worthwhile - and stop being such cheapskates and lazy scroungers. Oh and thanks for the nice free information umut.

First of all i created my images in a DLL file so all images are show with a webresource.axd file. Problem here is that if they save the axd file as a png file they still have the image. Next what I try is place the pic online with a transparant png file on top of it and protect the image src code from being placed in the url to get image. Like this you cant get it by right clicking and not by pasting in the url. Problem here is that you can put the image in an own html file (not online) and then take it from there. Conclusion. You cant protect your images. Even I went on websites where they tried to protect images and still i was able to take it. I never saw a real website where its impossible to take the image.

Its better because it doesnt damage photo impression and thiefs cannot crop the watermark so easily, because they dont know that it is watermarked. I prefer Digimarc or much cheaper SignMyImage. Btw. good article :-) F. I think you have forgotten watermarking by invisible signature.
