I almost protected my website from all the image theft options like

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www.)?localhost [NC] 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www.)?localhost.*$ [NC] 
RewriteRule .(png|jpg)$ - [F]
  • Disable the direct image access in the htaccess file which shown above
  • Right click is disabled
  • Added watermarks in the Design Canvas preventing from screen capture or crop
  • Hotlink protection is enabled for search engines and other sites linking my images

As almost everything i done in my website to prevent image from downloading

But i failed in one thing

enter image description here

How can i hide or disable this image tab from the user in the resource, because i have see in some of the websites it is disabled

  1. You can never truly protect your images from being accessible, infact what you are trying to do now is very browser and version specific which is not the best approach as well, infact you might want to go the standard approach which many of the popular websites do, (500px.com for example). Load standard quality images with watermarks and download and give the actual images on purchase, that way you do not end up coding and updating the code on every version change of chrome.
