Sarah, I sent it yesterday. The point is Sarah, you dont have to make the 'web thing to put your tree on'. You just click the create home page and the whole caboodle goes shooting over automatically and forms an online tree in book form. Thats it, no making gedcoms and exporting them and stuff, the program does it all for you. It sounds to me like you may have not realised the website was already created when you got your 'home page'. The home page IS a website, not just one page. Its your entrance to your book of your tree. To send people the link, go to your home page website, click on Edit my Page, and a little thing comes up on right hand side I think saying, send an invitation to people (or some such). It then brings up a sort of mailing list box and you just add their names and email addys and click send.

Peter - had a peak - shame no photos!! But apart from that, dead good. Had a look at Cotterells on there as hubby side has Cotterells from Birmingham - gun smiths. Dont forget on an individuals page you can click on the little tree icon next to their name and get a little tree come up showing where they fit in.

Heather, might add some later. That was just to get up and running and to see how easy it was. The Cotterell connection is from the marriage of Coleman Cotterell of Darlaston to Mary Baggott, 1834 in Tipton. Mary Baggott would have been my wife's cousin 5 times removed.....!

Peter (for everyone really) the photos are really easy to add - if you have them on your hard drive you just click on the scrap book under someones name, click on insert, click on photo/object, browse for the photo, have a preview of it and crop it and edit it if need be - all this is on the program, no need to do anything fancy/difficult - then add it.
