Specifically, revoke their CREATE rights on public (as well as any other
schemas you've created) and revoke their CREATE rights on the database
so they can't create any new schemas to create tables in.
If you are feeling draconian enough to want to prohibit creation of temp
tables as well as regular tables, then also remove TEMP rights at the
database level. I'm dubious about the usefulness of this though.
