I would suggest that FF implement an automatic image grab blocker to help prevent texture presets, art, or any image posted in the forum from being "taken". I've found my art samples, posted in "StevieJ's Lab", for sale at other sites....so I now have to be careful about what I post in the FF forum....
Image grab blockes are becoming quite common....they prevent the right-click 'save image' functions and screen image savers from working....and should be easy to have automatically implemented on all texture presets and any image posted in the forum.... Steve

Dood, it's the innernetz, you know how it goes. Either watermark your stuff, only post smaller/compressed images that no one would bother stealing, or risk it. Seriously man, ain't a dang thing changed yo.

And what about hitting "Print Screen" and then paste in your image editor?
If it shows on the screen in the first place, there is nothing you can do...
As jffe says, compress them hard or watermark them with semi transparent watermarks..

actually, sphinx, there is a way to block that also. i believe the trick was to put a transparent image over the real one and then the person hitting 'print screen' would see the image underneath but would be capturing the transparency. If wishes were horses... there'd be a whole lot of horse crap to clean up!

Yes, image grab blocking has become quite prevalent on sites that don't want images taken....blocking printscreen, screen grabbers, save image, ect....nullifying the need to use distracting watermarks.....
I would strongly suggest that FF use it here....especially since anyone and everyone has access to texture presets and image posings even without having to create an account.... Steve

I actually did it for a while in Second Life, but I never redistributed them in any way, I just used them for my own stuff. Actually if I weren't on a hunt for free seamless textures I don't think I would have found FF  Roses are #FF0000
Violets are #0000FF
