mlcribbs -> Printed Family Tree & Reunion photos (9/20/2009 8:58:26 PM)

We just had our family reunion Saturday and I printed our family tree to display on the wall and I just wanted to let you know that everyone really enjoyed looking at them.  Everyone was talking about how they were related to everyone else.  I also created a power point of the website and walked people through how to use it at the reunion (No web access where we met).  I uploaded all the photos that night, added a news item with highlights of the reunion and then I sent a newsletter to everyone the next morning that photos were posted on the website.  We have had a lot more traffic on the website today.  Thanks for making it possible to share so much so quickly and continue to share even after we have left our reunion.

I love what you make possible on this site.

Thank you very much. We really appreciate the comments. And especially thanks to you for all the suggestions you have given in the past. Users like you make it all possible. We have been having difficulty release new versions, but we are trying our best to make the suggested changes.

Just curious. Did you print this out on regular document size printer paper or did you go another route to make it larger? If so, what source did you use? Thank You.

I printed it on regular paper.  It prints out in the order you need to tape it together and make a big chart.  I trimmed the bottoms and side of the sheets to make it fit seamlessly.  I also changed the color on my family tree to more of a gray scale so it wouldn't use so much color ink.  I had two very large charts that I posted on the wall at the reunion.  It isn't something you can read from a distance, but when you walk up to it you can read it and it even prints out the photos if you have them uploaded.  Everyone seemed to enjoy looking at them.

OK. I will check that out. I definitely want to have a family tree banner available this year, so that the family can check it out and make changes if necessary.
If you don't mind I would love to check out the power point presentation that you presented at your reunion.
My personal email is zenisa28314@yahoo.com
Thanks again.

Well, I have tried 3 times to email you at this address, but it doesn't seem to be working.  Let me know if you got any of my emails.  None of them are showing up in my sent folder for some reason.
