I'm new to this group and to the Legacy program. I've been reading all the posts, and quite frankly, found the comparisons between programs very useful. I researched and debated on which program to buy and the discussion made me feel confident in my choice.
But now, this attitude of being told what to say is leaving a bad taste in my mouth. Is Legacy so insecure that any mention of other programs is an insult to them? I'm just shaking my head here.

I don't want this to become a thread about Ancestry. Note that I also wrote " Unless it's on how to incorporate data from Ancestry (or any other website) into Legacy....." The "third-party products" which are acceptable to discuss are those specifically sold by us as add-on programs. You can find a list of them on the website under the Add-Ons menu. You are free to discuss how to create web pages in Legacy. However, if you wish to get into more detail about editing the HTML web pages, best FTP programs for uploading, etc, there's a group started by one of our listers at http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/WUL/, which is populated by people who are very well versed in HTML and websites. The purpose of this group is described as "a self-help group for genealogists wishing to create and improve their websites which are based on the Legacy genealogical software. In particular its aim is to give support to those with no knowledge of website construction. It is also anticipated that the group will assist those with more experience in overcoming the programming questions/problems relating to Legacy which we all meet and try to overcome on a regular basis." Please review the LUG list guidelines at http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/Etiquette.asp. "The purpose of the LUG is to provide a forum for mutual help and the friendly exchange of ideas related to the use of Legacy Family Tree and its add-on programs, only. Please keep on topic. "Send messages only in plain text "2. Please stay on topic of Legacy and Legacy Add-on Programs Stay on the topic of Legacy and its add-on programs, which is the sole purpose of the LUG User Group. "5. Please only include relevant return text when replying. Mail boxes can quickly become cluttered by with meaningless "me too" or "thank you" messages that are devoid of any other relevant text, and replies containing pages and pages of an ongoing message thread." Thanks for using Legacy.
