Gather and Right Click-ability - Image Protection

EDITED to say... Maybe it's just me.... Seems like a lot of folks are still able to right click after all.  How about you?

************************************* 

Well, color me surprised!  A few minutes ago, I tried to right click on one of my OWN images here on Gather.  (I wanted to re-publish an old one for a Capture This theme.)  What happened?  Nothing!  At first, I got an error saying it wasn't allowed.  Then, it did nothing at all except display rollover text.  I tried opening a new browser, I tried switching to Firefox, but no dice.  I was puzzled, since just a few days ago, I was able to right click and copy a few of my other old images.  What about you?  Can you still right click and save your images files here?

Now it's not uncommon for me to miss the boat.  I'm not always up on the latest news.  But I sort of figured that if Gather had gone ahead and implemented a no right click policy, a lot of folks here would've thrown a big party, especially in light of recent copyright infringement debates.  Did I miss something?

It's annoying that I can't capture my own image files anymore, but it seems like it's a good step toward protecting images here from theft.
