    3. I have been wondering where the info about the new site limit and charges came from as I don't recall receiving such a notice. I just carefully reviewed my MyFamily Site and finally found a notice at the bottom of my page which said I had gone over my limit also. I then found that they offer subscribers to the Ancestry site a free upgrade. Here is the notice: Special Offer for Ancestry.com Subscribers: Annual subscribers to Ancestry.com receive a free Premium Site or Premium Site Upgrade. To receive this special offer: 1. Select the option for "Add 100 MB 200 MB ($19.95 Annually)" above. 2. Enter your Ancestry.com Username and Password below. 3. Click "Upgrade My Site!" I entered my Ancestry user name and password and now am credited with 200MBs. I haven't prices other sites, but believe it is a bargain. I did look at this site recommended in the August PC WORLD magazine as the best home page site was at www.homestead.com. It offers fairly user friendly methods to build your own site. You can see some of the results if you take the tour and some owner sites look really good. They charge 49.95 per year. I still think MyFamily site is much better for my needs and since I have a lot of time invested in it, I think I will stay with it and even if I had to pay the additional 20.00 per year, it isn't too bad. After all, there is no free lunch anymore.
