I'm looking for some templates or samples of Family Tree webs sites. I've started one but it's kind of dull and unimaginative.

I'm using Visual Site Designer 7

Here's my current site: http://ballcoueyhultgren.com/

I am now retired so I'm going to start spending a lot of time on improving this site.

JR, have a look at this:

Nothing against VSD 7, but you might want to use software that's designed for your specific project. Or maybe create a public site/welcome page with VSD and use Web Access Manager to control entry to parts of the family tree site? Although it looks like it might have a private family area built in already.
