rollover images

images don't show up

[peachy_vk]

I found a script supposedly to allow images to change with moused over...but I can't get it to work. The image doesn't even show up. I tried changing the image name in the script they had so that it would refer to my image, but it won't work no matter what I do. Can someone help me create a code so people will stop stealing my photos on mouseovers and right clicks! Even right click prevention doesn't work if they hightlight the photo and copy to a word document, so the only option is the mouseover so my photos are protected. Can someone help me please? I'm going nuts trying to figure out what I did wrong. I created my site strictly in html so I don't know if that has anything to do with it not working right or not. The main (index) page is html only. I want to put a photo gallery on a page with a link to that page. I have the gallery up but have seen people's sites that stole my photos and aren't giving me credit for it. I know that the mouseover...or at least what I have seen so far...is a javascript code...and I know NOTHING about javascripting! Please help? I'm desperate! :-(
Thanks!

Getting the roll-over image to show:
As well as making sure the filename is correct in the code, make sure that the file is in the correct directory and that the code is referring to the correct directory.
Do you have the other bit of code added to the image itself (or the tag it's inside)? This bit of code should contain the words onMouseOver and onMouseOut. You may have forgotten to add it.

Stopping people from stealing your images:
Sorry but this is impossible. There are many tricks to make it a bit more difficult to steal your images, but there is always a way to get around the tricks. Many of these tricks have already been mentioned on this site, do a search for something like "stealing images". But the only way to really protect them is to put a big logo watermark across the middle of the image.
