I need to email a set of 50 odd pictures to a group of friends via email and Im not sure how to do it. The important thing is...I want only people who were the original receipients to see it and nobody else. Basically I dont want them to be forwarded again. Is there anyway to do this? I understand I cant stop them from saving the photos individually ut atleast some level of protection will help rightt??

Thanks

I would guess that's pretty much impossible.
If Microsoft can't stop pirating of their OSs, then I doubt you can stop someone from copying you photos.
You could host them on a passworded, photo sharing site, but nothing prevents sharing the password.
I would suggest just a stern warning not to pass then along would be your best bet.

As Billb2 said, you really can't keep them from forwarding the info if they choose to do it. However, your friends will be much happier if you send them a link to an online gallery of pictures (you can set one up for free on many sites like picasa and flikr) instead of making them wait forever for their email client to download all of the photos from their ISP's email server.
