Hi,
:rolleyes one of my customers came to my studio yesterday after she picked her pictures she complain to me that her daughter wanted to transfer pictures from her gallery to her IPod and that the image was to small and asking "why" I guess she doesn't know about copyrights, But now my question is this:<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
If she was able to transfer pictures to an IPod How secure is to prevent to download pictures?<o:p></o:p>
I start to doubting if this is a good idea. I like the way it works my customer can pick their pictures from home and just come when they are ready.<o:p></o:p>
But been honest I was selling more extra pictures the old way.:scratch
Corona:wink

    If you have watermarks on, and block originals, why worry? Let them see their photos :) You can block the largest display sizes if you wish, and you can also block external links and have right click protection on.

    I have watermark, right click protections but how can I block the original?

    On the customize gallery screen, scroll down to the security & privacy section.

    You can select the largest size to be displayed. Select something smaller than original.

    Even if you block the original from displaying, it's the original that will be used for printing - so the quality of printed images ordered through your site will remain high. But viewers will not be able to access the original.

    Yes, x3large is fine. Your viewers can still view a big photo but they won't be able to steal your original.
