Making A Digital Family Album – Gail McGowan; Basic, Intermediate, Advanced; (Friday at 11:30 AM & Saturday at 11:30 AM)

Now that you have all this wonderful family information – how do you present it to others? In this presentation you will get lots of ideas for how to take “dry” genealogy information and make it tell more of the STORY of your family. Albums can be more approachable and engaging for family members who are otherwise not interested in genealogy. Digital albums also have many advantages such as: reproducibility, being able to adjust the size of photos/memorabilia to fit on one page, and ability to include downloaded images.
