I too have started my tree on Tribal and it is a great site to store information and photos on.

As I said above Jan it does allow backup to a gedcom an your own computer(which GC does not). Deborah answering for Russell it is very easy to set up just register and upload your gedcom, it does the rest!. It is very good and there is nothing to lose. (uploading photos may be slow if not on broadband) Mine is on http://www.tribalpages(.)com/tribes?userid=yobert&x=13&y=10i Bob

Just a word of warning here - a few years ago, I started a website to cover my other interests. I chose Homestead, because it was free, and very easy to use. Then they decided that they would have to charge. By that time I'd built a huge website, which had had thousands of hits etc., and I didn't want to lose it, so I agreed to pay. Now, its about $85 a year, and who is to say it won't just keep going up every year. So Tribal may be free now, but it might not, once you have committed all your information to it and don't want to lose it. Jan.

Wow!! Very impressive Russell. Is it difficult to set up? Would like to have my own web page, but my current ISP doesn't give free web space. Debbie

This page has been mentioned before but www(.)tribalpages(.)com is a free site which allows you to build your own family tree including adding up to 15MB of photographs. It is excellent. If you want to have a look at my attempt to give you ideas (just started adding photos by the way), look at www(.)tribalpages(.)com(/)tribes(/)rvrord. Gencircles finds 'smartmatches' between your names and the other trees which have been submitted again it is totally free. Gencircles also has message boards for surname and area but it is sadly underused by the 'members'. Check them both out and submit your trees - more ways to make connections!
