Can you Truly Protect Your Artwork Online?
The number one question that we get from MosaicGlobe Members is "How can I prevent my images from being stolen off my website?" The answer is - you can't. Any type of theft protection can be circumvented by a determined and knowledgeable thief. Once an image is posted online there is no sure-fire way to prevent them from being copied and redistributed. Like spam - the risk of image theft is an unfortunate part of doing business online. However, you can take some precautions.
Google Calendars and MosaicGlobe
A while back we recommended creating a GoogleApps account to manage your email. Particularly if you were forwarding a domain to your MosaicGlobe website. Google Apps is a suite of powerful online applications that are easy to set up and free to use. Google Apps includes Google Calendar, Google Docs, Gmail and more. Read the last article [Adding Email and Domain Names to your MosaicGlobe website] to learn more about setting up an account.
In this article we're going to discuss embedding a Google Calendar to your site.
Adding Email and Domain Names to your MosaicGlobe website
MosaicGlobe will provide you with a great website using our naming structure (<mysite>.mosaicglobe.com). This works for most site owners but you may want to add a domain name to your site and have the ability to create multiple emails with that domain name as well. This article will walk you through the steps involved in getting your domain name pointed to your website and getting gmail to work for your domain name as well.
Embedding YouTube videos into your MosaicGlobe website
YouTube makes it easy to upload and share your videos. But you may want to embed those videos into your MosaicGlobe website to keep everything under one roof. YouTube provides you with the HTML code to do just that, but working with the code can be a little tricky. Here is a tutorial to walk you through the basics - plus some advanced tips.
What is RSS and what can it do for my MosaicGlobe site?
Depending on who you ask, RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication" or "Remote Site Syndication". It is a format for delivering site content without actually visiting a site. Like a magazine subscription, you will be sent content. But instead of monthly, you'll receive an update each time the site is updated.
