Using Canva to create the Stream image for your Q&A live


We had been hearing wonderful things about Canva, and today we gave it a try to see how you can easily create an awesome image that will go together with your Dilmot live Q&A stream.

Just login into Canva with your account and select the Poster size or the Facebook post size. Both of them are pretty good because they are closer to the square size that fits well to the left of the send question form.

Select sizes that get close to the 1:1 ratio for your stream image

Next step is select the design you want, and select the background image you would like to put. You can choose among a huge archive with more than 1M images, or upload your own:

Finally put your text and download the image:

As you can see, Canva is like an on-line Photoshop to quickly create beautiful designs based on existing templates. So, the main decisions are already taken for you. It is cool, not only for Dilmot, but also to make images for your blog, Twitter, Facebook accounts or other social media tools. There are many preconfigured formats to speed up your work.

Hope you liked this pill. Enjoy Q&A’s with Dilmot. See ya!

Add a YouTube video inside a live Q&A


We are releasing a new feature today for Dilmot.

You asked for it: Is it possible to embed a video in an iframe inside an answer or comment in Dilmot?

Yes, you can just copy the iframe code, for example, in YouTube, like this:

Pick up the embed code from YouTube video > Share > Embed option

Pick up the embed code from YouTube video > Share > Embed option

And paste it into the answer or comment in the panel of your Dilmot Q&A stream:

You can now embed a video inside an answer or comment within the Dilmot panel

This example for YouTube would equally apply to other providers such as Ustream or Livestream.
