Maybe I'm missing something in the edit pages... but any time a customer right clicks their image, there's a list of links to the image in every size.. from thumbnail to high res large. ... Even with the Watermark across the image, I still don't want people downloading the images!

.. Isn't there a feature that prevents COPYING the photos??? (maybe I should have gone with spitfire instead of zenfolio. .. zenfolio looks better... but spitfire protects your photos from customers downloading them!

send me to yr website, i'm not sure what you are talking about...usually there's just a 'download original file' option when you right click.


if it's on a screen, people can always prtscrn and grab the image.

You only get the full list under the "Show Link To Photo" menu if you're logged in. Here's what I see if I'm not logged in:

Ok.. Thanks. I've got it fixed now. .. I had to diable the download orig. file.. and also disable 'large photos'. .. I started to freak out because I could still see the links to all of the images (and open each image in a different browser page).. but I *was* logged in. It looks like Sean's now.. where the only links available are to the gallery or the image page. (**whew**). .. I agree, nothing will stop someone from printing the entire page.. but I've made my watermark as obnoxous as possible... and the page just has a low res image.. so hopefully, not too many will get printed that way.

Ok.. my domain name became active yesterday.. but there's still quite a bit of tweeking to do. I just had to get it right for the Cutting Club photos that I shot on Sunday... I'm downloading them now.. as I type this.

You can also hide the icon that says "send link". To hide it, go under customize visitor view and select options.
