dwProtector, MooTools 1.2 Image Protector

By: Mark Dijkstra    In: Images MooTools

Image protection is a hot topic on the net these days, and why shouldn’t it be? If you spent two hours designing an awesome graphic, would you want it ripped of in matter of seconds?

Hell no! That’s why I’ve created an image protector class to help designers and artists protect their images. Here’s how it helps:


  • Prevents right-click “Save Image As”.
  • Prevents dragging an image to the desktop.
  • Prevents right-click “Save Background As”.
  • Prevents right-click “View Background Image”

What about a screenshot? It’s low-res but doesn’t stop web reproduction.

The thing with ‘protecting’ things you think you ‘own’ and yet you post them online is that it’s impossible. So why bother?

firefox – tools – page info – save image as. Bypasses this with no effort at all
