I would have if right click is disabled... I open all links in a new tab and if it was disabled, I could no longer do that. :(

Like they say in the FAQ on the subject, it's pointless to disable it as you can screen capture just as easily. It wouldn't change a thing.

I do not agree with art theft, but I like to save pictures I like for my desktop. Anyway, they can't disable screen shots.

Even if da disabled it, you'd have to think someone out there would be smart enough to bypass it cause it isnt to hard if you think about it.

If right click was disabled I would not spend hardly any time on the site due to that, if it was disabled on 100% of the site. I can see on just images if that's what you meant, but even then I'd rather it wasn't. Like people keep saying, there's too many ways around it for it to do any good at all, it's just annoying.

No. It doesn't bother me that right click is enabled. Its easy to screengrab an image if someone really wants to do it. But then I have no objections at all to people downloading my photos and saving them on their computer. As long as they don't start displaying my work without permission or trying to make money from it I don't stress over it.

I actually started making wallpapers of my photos because people were using the pictures as wallpapers even though they were way too small. It makes me happy to think that people want to save my photos to enjoy again or use one of my pictures to decorate their computer.
