Sorry, I meant "TNG".
Many of my events have html code that point to urls within my site that contain 
the documents and info that I've gathered over the years. One of the things 
Legacy used to do was compress the images when it output them for the web. I 
don't know if it still does but I know in a lot of instances it would take a 
barely readable image and make it unusable. Also, I could never get the format 
for the web pages to look the way I wanted them to look. So, I started using 
events for most everything and used html tags in the event notes to point to 
external pages. See what I mean at http://www.glsmall.com/event-example.html. 
If I was just starting out I'd probably use TNG but I don't have the desire or 
passion I once had for genealogy so I don't want to go back and redo 
everything. I'm just wanting to make one last update before I call it a day on 
my research and continue on with my other life long passion.

TNG is easy to setup and great to use.  It will read Gedcom 5.5 from Legacy

Were you speaking of The Master Genealogist or The Next Generation? I was 
confused about that, plus what minor detail was missing.

TMG would be my preferred way for web presentation except for one minor detail. 
I'm pretty sure my legacy output to a GEDCOM file would not work. I started 
using Legacy back in the early days with the intent of putting all the info on 
the web but legacy didn't have the capability of outputting "everything" I 
wanted in their web page generator, or it wasn't in the format I wanted it to 
be in. So, I improvised and used a lot of HTML references in the person's 
"Events"  that I'm pretty sure won't translate in a GEDCOM export. The first 
time I decided that the Legacy web output wasn't doing what I'd hoped I decided 
to improvise a way to get the output to display the way I wanted it to display. 
Then I had to go back through the database and revisit every person. I just 
don't have the desire to go back through all my sources and events and revisit 
all my documentation *again*. Actually, I'm happy with the Legacy output and 
while updating the web isn't a one click event it only takes me a day or so to 
massage the Legacy web output and get it uploaded.
