I think that Michael's last comment is the most important to remember -
there is absolutely no way to stop screen-capture from occurring.

>From an IT development side of things there are ways that we can even take
the screen capture and improve on it.

I guess that my question would be - if faced with the challenge that you
have in front of you is to what degree you need to protect the image. If you
must truly stop any chance of "theft" then you cannot post it.

The other question is whether a 72dpi copy of the image is doing harm. I
cannot see anyone trying to pass off the image as the original or even as a
"bad" copy as at 72 dpi it will be less than a bad copy.

Start with the question "Can I live with someone doing a screen capture?" If
the answer to that is "Yes you can" then what exactly are you trying to
protect.

This is certainly a big issue from the side of the museum but the reality is
that from a public's viewpoint they are going to see that whatever you do it
can be worked around. Do you simply want to make it difficult? Or do you
want to make it impossible?
