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.
edit: aw cr@p... how did my grandmother's name go missing? |
Perfect!
We've been planning a family photo wall for quite some time. This is just the inspiration I needed. Doing this wall sized with all the lines and everything would be cool. I wonder if I could find a place to custom print photos from that sticky vinyl stuff.
