It generates either narrative or grid style person pages, a master index, a surname index, and source pages. Check out the <a href="features.htm">partial list of features</a>. You can review the site on your own PC before you share it with anyone. You can <a href="publish.htm">publish it on the web</a>, or <a href="removable.htm">distribute it via a DVD or flash drive</a>.</p> <h2>Example Sites</h2> <p>The <em>best</em> way to learn what Second Site can do is to review the <a href="examples.htm">sites published by Second Site users</a>. You can also review the official <a class="ext" href="https://www.secondsite8.com/demo/index.htm">demonstration site</a> or the <a class="ext" href="https://www.secondsite8.com/examples/index.htm">Theme and Format Examples</a> page to see some of the variations possible with Second Site.</p> <h2>What You Need</h2> <p>Second Site requires a database created and maintained with TMG, <em>The Master Genealogist</em><sup>TM</sup> from <a class="ext" href="https://www.WhollyGenes.com/">Wholly Genes Software</a>.</p> <p>Second Site is a Microsoft Windows program designed to work with Windows 10 and 11.
