Kay,

If I may:  I don't think Ron was saying these events are not significant.
There has been much discussion about older "bugs" not being addressed.  I
think Ron was saying he would like to see those things addressed first.

Ron, please correct me if I am wrong.

So, Kay, if I am correct, please don't take his response too harshly.
(Hopefully you can re-read his comments in the context he meant it to be
read in)

I too like the idea of the Icons.  I think I might find another way for this
implementation to suit my purposes.  Thanks for sharing.

Ron:  "Cutesy non value added bells and whistles" is hardly the way I'd
describe giving special recognition to ancestors and/or relatives who have
made outstanding and significant contributions to our lives and to our
country.  

With the Sailing Ship Icon, I am giving special acknowledgement to brave
emigrant ancestors who made the arduous and dangerous ocean voyage to  start
a new life in this country. With the Military Emblem Icon, I am saying
"Thanks" for my ancestor's military service to this country. Anyone who has
put their life on the line for me deserves a salute in my book. 

I'm sorry, you consider giving credit where credit is due is of no value and
not substantive.  What is the point in compiling a genealogy?  Is anyone
going to read endless pages of b&w text reciting dates and places?  A little
colored Icon draws a reader's attention to extraordinary people.

I'm happy to see there are others on this list who want to acknowledge
ancestors who made valuable and substantive contributions to their lives.

===============================================
Sorry but I would much rather see the developers put the resources into
correcting all of the outstanding problems/issues with the program.  I think
the program has enough cutesy non value added bells and whistles.  Legacy is
falling behind the programs that are adding substance not bells and
whistles.
