GC, personally I would not place a cemetery photo in the photo gallery of the individual. I reserve this gallery for photos of the individual that are taken over a period of time from the birth of the person right up to the present day or the end of their life. But each person has a different way of doing things, if this works for you that's great. Remember that only the preferred photo that is selected will be displayed in reports. As for entering a cemetery photo using the + sign in the burial section, to me this is like placing it in "La-La-Land", the photo does not print in reports, I stopped using this option a long time ago. Some day the programmers may make this feature operational, (don't hold your breath waiting for it to happen though). I prefer to add an event to the person called "Cemetery Photo", "Cemetery Headstone", whatever you want to call it, then attach the photo to the event. You can also add whatever facts you want into the notes section in the event. Leo

When you click on the half shaded Picture Icon on the Family page said tombstone photo does NOT appear. In my test only photos of Individuals show up when the Picture Icon is full colored. If you have 2 photos of the individual and 1 photo of the tombstone only the 2 photos of the individual are displayed. Just seems to me that the tombstone photo should appear in the half shaded Icon AND the full colored one as well! gc On Tue, 06 Jan 2009 14:15:45 -0800 Cathy Vallevieni writes: GC: When you enter a burial photo using the + sign in Burial section of the main screen or you add it from the picture icon as a "Burial" photo, it is saved in the same place, shows in both locations and changes the photo icon to half color. It just seems to be two ways to accomplish the same result. I think this was your question.

The Photo Icon on the main Family screen shows when there are photos associated with the individual. This is also where I've been parking my tombstone photos. I tried attaching a few tombstone photos using this procedure. However, looks to me like if this method is used there is no indication anywhere a cemetery photo is present unless the cross + is clicked from Burial line from the Individuals screen to see if BURIAL PICTURES is check marked. Am I correct in this assumption? If so, this is a decided DISadvantage in that you don't know an individual in your database may have a tombstone photo available. Using my method granted a tombstone photo is mixed in with individual photos, but at least the Photo Icon alerts you to the presence of some kind of photo - individual or whatever! gc On Sun, 4 Jan 2009 21:18:19 -0800 "Phil Husband" writes: Cemetery data: The way I enter cemetery information is to click on the cross + to the far right of the Burial line in an individual page. There you may enter the name of the cemetery, the address of same and even pictures relating to the burial such as an overall picture of the cemetery and a gravestone picture. The obituary is a good addition here also. ____________________________________________________________ Air compressors at affordable prices. Click Now!
