I've seen a neat way of ``protecting'' images from download: cut them up in, say, ten pieces, and display them in a table where each cell contains a piece. While this does not really protect the images from download, one would have to do a certain amount of work to construct an image from the pieces. Come to think of it, the easiest way would be to take a screenshot of the browser window, and just cut the image out. I don't think anything at all would protect you from people doing something like this. -- Arcady Genkin i=1; while 1, hilb(i); i=i+1; end
