I've got a website now, and it's got Gallery 2.x and I have a 20,000 or more stickers, but the problems I've got, its like this
1. They are .jpgs, I'd rather I could upload as .cdr or .wmf because the vector types don't get fuzzy when you shrink them to a thumbnail.

2. Second problem, I need to disable the right click so no one can steal them, as in
right click "save picture as" needs to be DISABLED.

3. Third problem, I need to batch upload them, not just one at a time, I've got so darn many pictures I need to do it in a batch. Is that Possible ?

The guy building my website won't call me, I'm not that technically advanceds, so tell me in plain english, or email me at

. I'm almost deaf, so email or chat is best. Do you guys have a chat thing available ?

email me your answers.

Generally it's better to post different questions in individual threads.

1. Gallery2 will handle whatever graphics types the image toolkit that you're using will.
For many reasons imagemagick or NetPBM are better than GD - you will have to see if either of them handles the graphics type you want to use.
Do some research, and also see
