Hello one and I.

This seems to be a knowledgeable group of people so I wish to rack your brians. I wish to buy some Genealogy Software which can be capable of including photos and graphical images.

Publicise my family history on my own website (i.e save the information in my pc system so I can upload on to my website)
direct access from the program to family history on CD-ROMs and the World Wide Web via the Internet.
------------------------------------------------------
What is GEDCOM genealogy information transfer standard is this important and whats it used for

Or do I ask to much

Thanks

Roland Keates

Hi Roland and welcome, This website will explain what a gedcom is

basically it is a means of transfering your family history information from one piece of family tree software to another.

Most family history software will let you create your own web pages for your site. I have done it for my own web site but have not included photo's (i don't know if my software does or not)

I use Legacy.

Hope this has helped a little bit.

Steve.
