Welcome from Coralynn

Welcome to Coralynn's User Talk.

My ancestors, for the most part, emigrated from England to New England between 1620 and 1635.

This link brings up some of my major surname lineages. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~hubbard/CORALYNN'S_Genealogy.html

Welcome

Welcome to WeRelate, your virtual genealogical community. We're glad you have joined us. At WeRelate you can easily create ancestor webpages, connect with cousins and other genealogists, and find new information.

Create Webpages

The first thing to do is launch Family Tree Explorer, then select File in the Family Tree Explorer menu and give your family tree a name. You can either upload your GEDCOM or create person and family pages one at a time. To upload your GEDCOM, select File in the Family Tree Explorer menu and then click on Import and choose the GEDCOM file to import. The system will create a editable web page for each person and family in your GEDCOM. To create a page manually, select Add in the Family Tree Explorer menu and click on Add new person; enter the given (first name) and surname (last name), select Add, then fill in the blanks and save.

The Family Tree Explorer is a Flash application and will need to use some space in your computer to cache the files. That's computer talk for "If you store some ancestor page information on your computer, you will be able to view more pages faster. Otherwise, the system has to fetch each page every time you edit or look at it. This would make navigating your tree very slow.

Connect with other genealogists

You should always sign in when you are editing or adding pages. Use the signature button to sign your work (the swiggle, second from the right, above the edit box). That way others with similar interests can find you. If you click on the blue user name on any page, you will go to that person's home page. You can leave a message on his/her Discussion page. The Discussion page button is in the light green second level menu bar above.

Images

I left the images out of the video to save time. It's more of an advanced feature. We are also upgrading image upload in the next week. So all the instructions would be wrong anyway. But, if you would like to upload now, go to the Help tab, and select tutorials. There is tutorial for images and annotations. Its not quite done. Generally scanned images are too large for internet upload. So you will need to use Paint or another image application to reduce the size. The tutorial writer isn't done with the directions for that. So, for Paint, you would upload the image into Paint, Select the Image tab, click on Stretch and Skew, and adjust the percentage horizontal and vertical to a percent that displays the image a little smaller than your screen. Save it. Then click on the upload image and follow directions in the tutorials. If you have any other questions, please leave a message on my talk page. Thanks :D --sq 22:09, 31 March 2007 (MDT)
