How Do I Keep People From Copying And Pasting My Pictures From Myspace?
I know about the privacy setting. I have them on. They still don’t prevent people from copying your photos to their own computer. I know some websites have it where you cant take their images, where if you right click it, it doesn’t give you the option to save picture to your computer. I was just wondering if there was something like that on myspace. Hope you can help.

If you don’t want people taking them, don’t keep them up where people can see them.
It is near impossible for you to stop people from taking photos off the net. Even if you can’t right click and save it or copy it, you can always use the Print Screen key on your keyboard to take a screenshot of it, paste it onto a paint program, crop the picture, and then save it. The best way to keep people from it is by keeping it a smaller picture and putting a giant, hard-to-photoshop-out watermark on it.
But I’d doubt you’d want to do that for myspace pictures…because the point of putting them on myspace is so people can see them.

there is no way you can stop people from taking pictures off the internet even if you have coding to prevent right-click (which is annoying)
it’s called screen capture and crop.
the only way to stop people from taking pictures off the myspace would be to not put them up in the first place.

your not allowed to do that on myspace, thats javascript im pretty sure, or something like that, and you will end up with a deleted profile. make your album private, and btw, they could copy and paste your images, but you save by right clicking and pushing ’save as’

Hate to inform you but there’s no way to prevent this. All someone needs to do is press the button on the keyboard entitled “Prnt Scrn”
This takes a screenshot of the page which you can paste any any photo editing program. Just a reality of the web, sorry.

if they can see it, they can get it. If you don’t want people to see it and pass it around, don’t put it up.
Any image on your screen can be copied by pushing the print screen button and then clicking paste and cropping out the rest of the screen so don’t be stupid.

everything you write and put up on the internet is for the public…..so i would suggest to not have a myspace if thats been a concern for you or edit your friends and make sure its ppl you know and keep your pictures on private

Any method designed to stop visitors from downloading images can be circumvented by a person with the right set of technical skills.
Once you understand and accept the fact that you cannot stop people from copying your images online, you still might want to try and slow them down. This article covers a few different roadblocks you can place between your images and their audience.
Webmasters wanting to prevent visitors from downloading their images often employ two different tactics: disabling the ability to right-click, and overlaying the image with a transparency. Both methods attempt to prevent visitors from right-clicking on your images in order to save them.
Right-clicking your mouse button (or CTRL-clicking on a Mac) brings up a context menu containing a few options that apply to whatever element you have right-clicked on. One of these options is “save as”, and allows you to save any right-clicked image. There are many different JavaScripts that attempt to disable right clicking. These scripts work to an extent — any visitor savvy enough to disable JavaScript in their web browser can circumvent this method.
Webmasters may also overlay their images with a second, transparent graphic in order to stop visitors from downloading the original. The visitor intends to right-click on the image they see, but in reality they are right-clicking on the transparent image placed over it. Some visitors may be confused when they realize they have downloaded an invisible image, but others will persist. The overlay method can be defeated by taking a screenshot and then cutting out the desired image with Paint, PhotoShop, or another photo editing program.
Users may also want to include visual elements to discourage visitors from saving their images. Two widespread aesthetic roadblocks are the use of watermarks, and the use of low-quality images.
