I'd like to be able to keep search engines from picking up the images in my albums. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks in advance...

Take a look here:

You can do it with robots.txt and .htaccess.
Do not send me a private message unless I ask for one.  Make your post public so everyone can benefit.

There are no stupid questions
But there are a LOT of inquisitive idiots

Robots.txt:

in fact, google for "robots.txt" and you will find loads of usefull pages.

Keep google from spidering your images:
Code Select
User-Agent: Googlebot-Image
Disallow: /
