For better access to the wills you can upload them to the other list web site I think I can set it so you dont have to be a member to share that area , Rootsweb , Ancestry and My Family are doing a lot of web site work and from time to time those pages will be a little hard to access . Looking forwards to it being all done, but for now it is rather unstable . I only created the other list to give you a workshop area where every one can share pictures and ged comes via list with out having to ask for it . The list web site is 20 megs and is accessible and useable by the members , you can upload things and download them at will . The Genconnects are being reworked into one entity and have been a head ache so far . When they are done they will be merged with MyFamily.com and a part of Ancestry , more powerful search's will then be available providing they dont crash the whole thing <G> A few things about the other list 1 - 20 meg website 2 - you can subscribe and go NOMAIL then read it via web mail any where in the world from any ones system with your website password - never have to down load mail to be a member . But you can be on regular mail if you wish = 3 - the 20 meg web site has a place you can make folders with your name to share your files, pictures and ged coms , you can put them up or take them down as you wish , but you will always be in control of them , we use it a lot on the Matney Forum and like it. I have the web tag lines set so they should come up in the search engines in the first 25 hits, if not let me know and I will program it so it does I hope. I am hoping the merger with Ancestry, and Rootsweb, and MyFamily is going to be a good thing, and not some mass membership plot to charge people when its all done.
