    copyrighted artwork online

    So I go to this website

    http://gallery.neosynthesis.net/figu...Y_SCHIZOID_MAN

    and I'm like 'wow, I really like that picture'

    I go to right click it and it gives me some lesbian schpeel about me not being able to do that because it violates rules and junk.

    So, I just do print screen, fire up paint, paste, and voila I've got a sweet new background.

    I'm so l337

    but seriously why even bother not allowing right click. If you have a sweet picture and put it online, people will do anything to get it.

    If you're using Firefox, goto Options->Web Features->Advanced... and unselect Disable or replace context menus. In my opinion, this should be the default setting.

    Naturally I didn't feel inspired enough to read all the links for you, since I already slaved away for long hours under a blistering sun pressing the search button after typing four whole words! - Quzah

    i always go through the extra effort of doing print screen and pasting it, because I feel like im james bond that way. and james bond gets laid constantly.

    Firefox has gestures you can do for viewing source and stuff like that.

    Or convenient plugins which show you the path of the image right beside it.

    lol, yea, that's great, not exactly what you want to see when you download some random file.


    i completely forgot to say what i wa originally gonna say: opera lets me right click it without a problem. even in IE you can turn javascript off sometimes and get it to work.
