My Family Tree has tons more to explore, like Reports, or a Tools menu with photo capture, sound recorder, character map, and other extras. Each new entry appears as a branch on our growing family tree in the left panel. The next step was to enter the parental units, starting with Father. That's a bit clunky, but again, most of My Family Tree is easy to use. Acting on a hunch, we saved our file and then reopened it, and then we could drag images and other files into our record. An image icon told us to drag and drop our portrait, but we tried several times with no success - nor could we attach photos or other files to our record. The birth date field uses a scrolling selector that tried to enter the current date as we typed but most fields let us type in data, directly. We clicked "Start a New Family Tree," opening a nice two-panel interface with up-to-date graphics (plus Themes) and a wizard-like process that quickly walked us through each step: name, gender, date, birthplace, and so on.
My Family Tree's installer offered to import GEDCOM data and other options. We tried the 64-bit version in Windows 7. My Family Tree is freeware with separate downloads for 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows XP to 8. The latest release, v3.0.5, adds support for KMZ files in reports and generally-improved performance. It has a full range of genealogical tools, such as relationship calculators, timelines, statistics, and even genetic data, and can also import GEDCOM data. You can attach photos, videos, sound clips, and more to individual records, including your own narratives.
