Use Photoshop's channel mixer to create your grayscales.
So, basically, you suggest scanning in RGB and then converting to grayscale?
Why not leave it in RGB?

Just curious as to the present trend of stock photographers...

By disabling right click you, as a website, are interfering with my right to
view the internet/site as i wish and as i find convenient. If you don't
respect my right, i'm not interested in your site.
Disabling right click will not stop any of the ones you mention from using

So, what's your point?
On the other hand, disbaling right click is an irritant... it stops me from
