Photobucket Question

[FootballCardFreak]

hey, I'm currently making banners and I was wondering if there is a way to disable people to copy the URL or save the image to their computer. I want to allow people to look at my banners, but not take them unless I consent. LMK if there is a way to do this.

I am not usre but maybe they have a helpdesk and u can ask them

im not sure but the best bet would be not to upload them at all if you dont want anyone to use it. but than no one will see them

try watermarking or adding you signature to them

No, I want people to use them, but I don't just want anybody to go in and take them.

exactly add another layer and save it as a psd anda jpeg, then when they buy your sig or want to use it they ask you and you remove that layer with your watermark and give it to them.

How do you save the link to your photobucket in your signature but rename it to say something like Football Photobucket and not the url address?

I think bee has it in his sig where you can still click a link but he has renamed it so its not actually http://ect

i know how to do this for all your albums but not for an individual one, so here is what i would do:

1.create an entirely new photobucket dedicated to your banners
2.when you are logged in go to account options (top right of page)
3.under album settings find the option that says "allow others to copy my media"
4.un-check the box next to the text
5.go to the bottom and press save


hope this helps!

EDIT: just found out this only stops people from saving the image to their computers
