Yvan,

You can't.

Read one of the hundreds of other threads about this very topic. There's a
fresh one today called "protecting your website pictures from being copied".
 
The sad answer is that you can't. There are things you can do that stop some
people but most somewhat computer-savvy people know how their way around
those. Sorry
 
Not possible!

It is not possible (apart from spending VERY big bucks).
When a viewer goes to your web site, watever is on URL's
page is downloaded to the hard drive and displayed on the
monitor. Just displaying the html page downloads the image!

You can't.

By writing JavaScript, you can disable right-clicking and
therefore "Save Picture As". But this is false security
because nothing can stop visitors from snagging pictures
any number of other ways.

The best advice is:

o Don't display pictures at high enough resolutions to
be useful for other purposes.
o Overlay pictures with "embossed" copyright statements.
o If you're still uncomfortable, don't put the picture
on the Web.
