Hi Kris, I think I can figure out that BMD stands for Birth, Marriage and Death, but I'm scratching my head over TNG. What is it?
Since I would some day like to upload a gedcom or have my own family tree website (thanks John for the GedSite site), I'm interested in knowing what is the best way for me to have all media for each person be available for uploading. Currently, I use the Media Gallery and attach documents or pictures to Events as well. Thanks everyone! I learn so much from these emails.
