Sherry - you have just enumerated all the desires (for a much better LUG email list) that I silently think about. Pictures on this list would be a major improvement. I have had a FB account for 10 years but I probably use FB (not the Legacy group, which I don't belong to) about once monthly.

Michele, Not *every* post. Just announcements about Legacy, webinars, etc. And if you decide to allow graphics in emails, then no problems. I'm on a lot of HTML email lists. It's attachments that can get scary! I agree with a lot of the users. I absolutely cannot handle the number of posts to

The reason that pictures and attachments are not allowed on this list is that apparently some people still have limited and/or slow internet access. Note expecting posts on Facebook to be copied here is totally unrealistic. I mostly post comments that make no sense without the originating

I agree. I'm sure we all do very much appreciate the invariably timely and helpful responses from Cathy and Michele to posted problems on this list. However I think it would also solve some of the angst if any Legacy announcements could also be posted to this list. It can't be that hard. We

PLEASE!! REREAD what I wrote. I'm not expecting whole conversations from FB to be posted here. If a staff member posts and announcement, such as build release, new webinar, reduced rates for MyHeritage or upgrade prices for Legacy or Legacy products = THOSE should be posted on the LUG list. Tips

We have some complaints about the Facebook LUG getting more information than the email LUG. I wanted to explain why that is. The Facebook LUG is in a much easier format to post information. I can do ten times as much stuff on the Facebook LUG than I can do here and a lot faster. *Conversations

I have no gripe about Facebook but will not use it, just because it eats far too much of my time. Being a curious curator, it can probably kill. However I also was surprised at the numbers quoted as membership. Have you ever thought of doing a roll call? Just to see what the numbers really look

Unfortunately Marian and can't just copy and paste every post. Besides the time involved, almost every post that Marian and I do have graphics. The email LUG is here for those who prefer this format and that is perfectly fine but I just wanted to let everyone know there are limitations.
