Calif_Sue said:If you are finding the images on Google, then yes, you can right click & copy them, as you can with any image found on the internet in a search. You can't right click and copy the enlarged image within the ATP database.
Unless you turned off the ATP copyright preference yourself, it appears in every one of your database images. You have to enlarge them to see it as some images are larger and do not show it in the smaller thumbnail.



While the right-click is disabled, any person can easily get around that if they know a little bit about the various functions on their browser. Image theft on facebook, twitter and pinterest in very common and unfortunately the only option is to do what Dave suggested. There is nothing out there that can prevent someone from grabbing any image from online, including here (even with right-click disabled, those who know how can still very easily grab those images, it only takes about 1 second longer than doing it with the right-click method). One way to do a quick look around the web is to do a google image search at this following link...

http://images.google.com/imghp...

Now, rather then typing into the search box, drag a copy of your photo into the search box and google will search for identical images regardless of size. If you find any you'll need to contact whatever website is hosting it to get it removed. Bottom line...if you put ANY picture online, you can fully expect it may get pulled and used elsewhere. There is not one thing you can do to outright prevent that from happening outside of never posting an image online. Once it is out there, there is no getting it back, so to speak.
