My clients do not want give their ideas away online. We do however want to show our prop inventory but we want to make it so that they can't look at a printed picture of our props and duplicate them.

You could try to watermark the images with image editing software or use a commercial service such as Digimark. Their URL is http://digimarc.com/. They have a few interesting options including a spider program that scours the web looking for Digimarked images and then running a comparison check to see if the image has been stolen.

One other option, and I'm not sure if this will work. If you save your images as the exact same size and place them on your page(s) using the FP2000 ad banner manager (possibly two or more images of the product at different angles? like a slide show or something) this may prevent them from copying the images. Again, I'm not sure of this method. It is one of those theoretical options. It looks good on paper but it may or may not work on the web. I haven't actually tried it. I do know that you cannot right-click and save with this option. Try it out and let us know.

Other than that, I'm not sure what else you can do to protect your images. I hope this helps. Good luck and let us know what you end up going with.
