Lihn, your question was specifically "can other members download the images and photos"? And the answer is, absolutely, yes. If the "other members" you are asking about are your friends who have visibility on those albums, then, it's easy.

For example, presumably as a friend of yours, I can see the album "April 2021" (https://www.lushstories.com/Lihncutiepie/albums/15), and then I can see a particular image, say the one of you in the car with the seat belt (https://www.lushstories.com/lihncutiepie/images/739).

Stormdog is correct in one sense, that "the usual 'save' or 'save as' functions don't work there", so right-clicking the page does a surface job of suppressing the typical interactivity, for example the "save image as" tool. But that's only because there's a piece of javascript running that returns false instead of invoking the standard browser behavior upon right-click. But there are browser plugins and configurations aplenty that will thwart that, enabling a user to simply allow the right-click behavior. Not only that, but every modern browser has an "inspector", say, Google Chrome invoked by ctrl-shift-i, that allows the user to inspect every element including revealing the source of images. All I have to do is launch the inspector, point it at the image, and viola!, I know the URL of the image itself is https://images.lushstories.com/60a154058254270de43f0b6a/2021047842.jpg. I can just browse to that URL and then right-click to save or just drag it from the browser to a folder on my computer just like any image in my browser.

So even though javascript can superficially block right-click or drag-to-save browser behavior, don't be fooled into thinking such a thing is any form of "security", because a workaround (inspector) is well-known and at everyone's fingertips.

If you can't live with someone who has access being able to store and share images and such with literally anyone (the subject of another post if you're interested), don't post them. If you already have, then, the best you can do is to delete them and hope they disappear into obscurity with no harm done. This isn't meant to scare anyone, just to inform.
