I can't totally agree with g1 here, your job was to tell the client it's not a great idea, then, when she insists, tell her how much it will cost to implement what she wants.
lizardz, exactly my thought process. I've really never meet a client like this one before. Apparently she visits her web site and each page EVERY day. It's a STATIC site!! But hey! If she can get $2,000 per pup, then that's her call on what she wants to do with her web site....
TJ - I still haven't quite figured out her fascination with the butterflies!

Do NOT disable Right-Click: it can be bypassed.
One method that works very well is stamping the images with user's name. This approach allows you to know who stole your image if you find a copy floating on the internet or a Peer-to-Peer network.
So what's so great about knowing WHO STOLE your image? If you collected their CREDIT CARD numbers, you can charge them!!! In practice, it's a strong enough deterrent that people don't steal images.
Newer generation software can embed the user's name into the image. This stamp persists even after screen-capturing, cropping, etc.

I just posted this in response to another thread over in the Graphic Design forum. Seems to fit your question too:
You can (re)make the graphics you display on-the-fly with a visible, imbedded watermark using PHP if you have the GD Library installed (which is already packaged in PHP4.0 and up I think).
Basically, you define the watermark text itself as transparent, but drop-shadow it with some opaque color to produce the watermark effect.
You only really need to do it on your large, production pics since nobody cares about stealing thumbnails much. Then let them steal them. It is virtually impossible - or at least so stupidly time consuming - to try to manicure the photo without wrecking the resolution or the whole thing.
If you are more serious than that, you can also imbed your own encrypted code for, say, certain trademark words directly into the binary source code of the image - pixel-by-pixel - which is totally invisible until the binary is hashed with your secret algorythm to retrieve them.
