At the risk of being called a troll, I thought I'd just ask: Why not
use image cloaking? Doing that would prevent users from saving images
even better than the right-click disable, as it would also prevent
them from saving the image by dragging it from the page to their
desktop.
With cloaking, you'd write some css to place a transparent gif
directly over the images you want to protect, so that when users tried
to save the image, they'd just end up with the transparent image,
instead of the one you don't want them to save. This would also cover
the ol' drag off the page trick, where the right click option
wouldn't.
I'm on the anti-disable-right-click side of the fence, obviously, as
there are more features in that contextual menu than just 'save this
image'. There's also 'bookmark this page', and I'd imagine you'd want
your users to have access to that. :)
