Description
EDIT:After the first comments I realized this is not going to work
Well it seems I am too outraged to think properly, maybe I'll use this Flash thing to add some simple animation to my works in the future, if I'll be go back making them
Just an idea against easy art theft, after the Maran Alsdorf case disrupted my last 5 nights of sleep.
The JPG image has been converted in a SWF movie with Adobe Flash CS5 (registered copy)
It's impossible to use the right click to save the image, while I believe it's still possible to copy the file in some way and extract the JPG image (I must check this).
The original JPG image has been added in the Sta.sh submission process to provide the mandatory preview image, but a smaller one can be used.
I know it looks strange if you don't have a big monitor, but it will be better with smaller images fitting a wider range of resolutions.

an unplanned benefit of this is that it defaults to full-size, rather than the small image that DA usually gives us when the page first loads. A downside is that middle-mouse-button pressing and holding doesn't work over the image; probably a flash thing.

I realized it is not a very useful method, I made it without thinking too much

In fact, the simplisest way to cpoy a picture, even in Flash is to print screen it...
The resolution will be 72 dpi, not good for print but good enough for screen.
I think with Cavaj Flash decompiler, you can extract the jpg.

Ok, at least it won't be available on image search engines and for automatic image grabbers.

Yep you're right.
But being on image search can be good for advertising your work.
In fact i'm at the same point at you for my picutres protection

I finally decided a big watermark will be the best safety, unfortunately
But the best way would be punishing hard the thieves, so that the theft wouldn't worth the risk
