i don't see the point in this.

if it's to protect images and stop people right-clicking to save, i can just view source, see the image paths, and then load'em up if i want to save them. if you wanted to be really arsey about it, you could use Flash in the way that Flickr does; except that they offer a link to the actual image, too. either way, there's nothing to stop someone screengrabbing the image . or running wget on the site and taking everything on your site.

if it's to view source, there's a menu option on every browser.

the point being: it's just extra work for the sake of it, and it makes you look a bit precious (in my opinion).

what's your particular reason for wanting to do this?
