I stayed up through the night last night because I got caught up doing this cool project (for no particular reason other than I thought it would be interesting and that the family might appreciate it). It's a photographic family tree. In my family this sounds easier than it is. Branches everywhere due to multiple marriages, kids on both sides, one person dropping down a generation because my ex-sister-in-law's little brother married my brother's (her ex-husband)'s daughter from his first wife (can you tell which part of the family is in Texas?), and because there are non-related family members that I felt compelled to include because they're related to so many others on the tree.

Anyway, my family tree-squiggle came out pretty cool. It's technically not done, because I'm missing a few pictures/names, but it's awfully damn complete all things considered, and tracks up to 6 generations down, from my great-grandmother and great-grandfather down to my cousins' grandchildren.

Not sure how well it'll come out online (the real file is 20"x30", so I had to compress it down, and I'm sure photobucket compresses further), but here is the fruit of my labor.
Spoiler:




edit: aw cr@p... how did my grandmother's name go missing?
