Post Family Pictures
With this quick posting, you can add pictures to multiple family records. To display properly in the program, pictures must be a digital format accessible to your computer.
We recommend creating a folder or directory on your hard disk to store picture files. This makes it easier to share the pictures if you're running the program on a network. If you want to include picture files in your regular data backup, create the picture folder as a subfolder of your Data folder. Pictures stored outside of the Data folder are not included in the backup.
Note:
Including the picture files in your regular data backup increases the size of your backup file. Consider creating a separate backup of your picture files on media that can store larger amounts of data, such as a DVD, CD-ROM, or external hard drive.
