Media Firewall Implemented.

All GEDCOM images will now reside in a secure area of the server and have been watermarked for public viewing. This allows for some protection against your original photos from being copied.

The watermarks disappear for users when logged in to their projects and when their browser has been refreshed.

For any individual page that includes photographs etc., an Album tab has been included so that all photographs can be viewed in a slide show. With the slideshow activated, the rest of the screen dims and some background music plays. What do you think?

For an example, please click:
