Flash photoblog

For some time now, I've been looking for a photoblog application that I can host myself, and more importantly will give me some protection for my images. Being a little web savvy I know just how easy it is to "steal" pictures from any html driven web site. So to this end i've been looking for a Flash / Flex or Silverlight application that will give me the protection i am looking for. I currently post some photographs to my main blog, but sometimes this makes me nervous.
So I've been chatting with a friend of mine who happens to be a bit of a Flash guru and it just so happens that he's been developing something along these lines on the sideline for the last few months.
After a bit of a natter over the weekend, it looks as if this may be something we could have a go at, and if it works the next stage would be to try and turn it into a marketable product.
However, if there's anyone out there who is already aware of a Flash based photoblog application, then please let me know...
