B][G K's first tut...here it goes.

if you're an amateur web designer like myself, you may have encountered the following problem: you come up with the perfect picture for your splash screen or a logo for your main page, but that darn image toolbar (you know the one that appears so lazy people don't have to right click to "save as...") is blocking the good stuff.

for the longest time, i had this same problem until one day i came upon this nifty one line meta tag that solved my troubles. i'm sure there are other ways to get around this problem, but here's one way:

1.) copy the following line:
<meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no">

2.)paste it between the <head></head> tags in your html code...

3.)...and your set. no more obstructive image toolbars on your site!

i know this is a kind of small detail, but sometimes it can make a big difference. hope this can help at least somebody out.

actually, shadow, the images can still be saved by right clicking. this tut is more to improve the visual presentation of a site than it is to prevent your images from being stolen.

however, there is javascript code that prevents the use of right-clicking, and i could certainly post that here if you give me a little while to look it up.
