There are codes available though I have not seen one in our code indexes so you would have to search for it possibly using the ZB Directory

However it's not actually a good thing to add as it would prevent members from copying portions of a post they want to quote, it would also affect you in that you could not copy an IP address you were not sure about and so much more.

It can also be circumvented by someone who has Javascript turned off

This is a subject that comes up a lot on photo boards I belong to where the members have an obvious vested interest. Disabling right click isn't a surefire way to prevent photo loss. For example, anyone can screengrab a photo. So disabling right click only gives a false sense of security.

Keeping photo size small and/or watermarking are better protections.

Other methods include ripping the image URL from the source code, or finding the image in your cache.
