How to link images from 500px?

[deregisteraccount]

Greetings Moderators and fellow ClubSNAP members, I'm currently experimenting with 500px to host my photos online as I'm having problems with Photobucket (colorspace issue makes my photos look weird) and Flickr is not secure as photos can be easily stolen.

500px currently only allows inserting images via HTML code, but I notice at the bottom of every thread that HTML code as been disabled by default.

Is there a way for me to enable HTML code? Or is there an alternative way to link images from 500px without a way of getting stolen?

Click the icon that brings you to the Embed Photo page, where they give you the embed code.
Then you can either
1. Right click on your image and "Copy Image URL", or
2. Copy and past the text that appears directly after <img src="

Example: <img src="500px.org/photo/12319123/thisisyourimageurl" alt="Photograph name"></p>

500px is not any safer really. If you can hotlink, anyone else can hotlink and DL the image too. The only way to protect against theft is either not post it online at all, or share it in a resolution so low that they can't really do much with it.

Thanks for that, I might stick with 500px because the hotlinked image is automatically resized to a smaller resolution. The flip side is that people will be unable to fully view the image if they wanted. So to summarise:

1) Photobucket has problems with colorspace which in turn distorts the colors on any photos I upload to it (I've solved it by switching colorspace to standard RGB, but all my previous photos are still affected as they were shot in Adobe RGB)

2) Flickr is the easiest, but I'll need to resize all my photos before uploading to avoid piracy of the full-sized images

3) 500px resizes my photos automatically when hotlinking, but also makes it impossible for anyone to view the full sized image

I was checking out Google+ Photos, but the layout and controls is more like Instagram and sharing on Facebook as opposed to sharing photos on forums like ClubSNAP.
