<h3>Does this site prevent people from downloading my pictures?</h3>
<p>
This website does not go out of its way to prevent people from downloading pictures, and
nor will it pretend to. This is actually a very difficult problem to solve in the year {{.YYYY}}.
</p>
<p>
I <em>could</em> add some JavaScripts that prevent right-clicking on my pages so you can't
just "Save image as," but this would only deter desktop (mouse &amp; keyboard) users and is easy
to work around. I <em>could</em> place a transparent image over top of all your pictures like
Instagram does and if you try and save it, you just get a one-pixel transparent GIF; but this
is trivially defeated by any novice web designer by just right-clicking, "Inspect element" and
deleting it from the web page to get at the photo it was protecting.
</p>
<p>
And people can always just screenshot the whole web page - and a web page can't do anything
at all to prevent that. With mobile phones this is an especially easy and common thing to
do. Any mild measures this site could take to deter downloading would only provide a false
sense of security, which is worse than having no security.
</p>
<p>
There are risks inherent with putting a picture on the Internet. This website does provide
some controls you can utilize as to <em>who</em> will see the pictures you upload:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
You can mark pictures as "Friends only" and only approved friendships you make on this
website will be able to see those pictures.
</li>
<li>
You may mark some pictures as "Private" and you grant access to your private photos on
a per-person basis, and can revoke access to one or all at any time.
</li>
<li>
This website also chooses utterly random URLs for each and every picture, with no
correlation between the square cropped and full size versions, so users should only
be able to discover pictures through the normal front-end of this website, subject
to your privacy controls.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Note that your square cropped Default Profile Picture that appears next to your username
on various parts of this website is always visible to logged-in user accounts. The "full size"
version may be Friends-only or Private, but the square crop that you chose for your Profile
Picture is currently displayed to all logged-in users.
</p>
<p>
Additionally, your Profile Page altogether can <em>only</em> be seen by logged-in members
of this site by default. You <em>may</em> tighten it further and mark your entire profile
as Private (and only approved friends can see your profile or <em>any</em> of your photos).
Note that your square cropped profile picture is still visible even so.
</p>
<p>
Or if you are feeling very bold, you may mark your profile to have a "limited logged-out
view" if you want to share your profile link on another website such as Twitter. A logged-out
user will see only your Display Name and square cropped profile picture, and be invited to
sign up for {{PrettyTitle}} to contact you here.
