Julie,

No I have no experience of FO,  RootsMagic was the first I bought.  RootsChat recommended it,  and I love the TO DO list too.  I would be lost without it.   ;D

Take a look at the download version (free for Evaluation) :

      Here is one I did just recently for my family, I had to reduce the quality  to send over the net.its size is A3
      Basicly it is a timeline linking my family with historic events/people and a background of rlations, historic items ( you could include family documents such as birth certificates)
      Now the bottom line is that you would need a little knowledge of graphics programmes(not an excessive amount) and a computr with tons of ram - at times my file streched out to 100mb.
       I also have a larger poster (1mtr x .8mtr) that is a family group photo circa 1914with the family tree overprinted.

I have removed this image as  Dennford has re-posted it, 'screen-sized', on Reply #33, and this one was too wide for the screen.

Hi Denn

I like that very much - what a great idea ! - I love the poster idea too - that would be good for older relatives or young children - if it's always on the wall - little kids could learn genealogy through osmosis....!!!!! I like that!
