I´m not sure about that. As I have tried to understand the behaviour of a PBase user and a PBase Guest it looks like the quality of the pictures (is it good, pretty, well taken?) is the most important thing around. This means that our behaviour is quite racional: it´s guided by our taste.
That´s why I think removing the rigth click wouldn´t make a real difference: If you want a picture, you already decided to steal it, even before you notice that right click does not work.

Yep. But as Internet becomes popular, the´re more and more that can create new alternate ways to do the same without using the right click. I mean; it could make a difference, but a small one.

Well in deed. But Actually I´more convinced that a watermark feature would be the best way to discourage the "non adecuated"use of the picture.
Please don´t be mad at me. I´ve only exprees my point of view (hope the english could be readable). That´s why I´tnink it would be better to create a Poll about watermark feature.

Ps. Well, we could do it at home but we need to download, process and then upload about 100 megs each one of us.
