New Image Viewer to replace DJVu Browser plug-in image viewer

Familyrelatives.com is pleased to announce the release of a new image viewer. The new image viewer is designed to render very high quality greyscale images without the need to always download a plugin. All new databases will use the new image viewer. The same great functionality will be available and will be expanded; including an easy to use contrast and brightness slider bar. We have also made it possible for you to share images with friends and family for free for up to 14 days.

The new image viewer will eventually replace the DJVu Browser plug-in viewer that is currently used on some existing databases, if you are unable to view an image continue to download the DJVu Browser plug-in image viewer (Free). For newer databases the new viewer will appear automatically when viewing images.

NEW Databases

With the growing number of databases as well as the addition of new records from Australia, New Zealand, England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Canada and the United States we have updated the main search page. In order to keep the clean look and feel, new tabs for each country have been added and the layout simplified to accommodate the increasing number of new databases.

On the left there is a new menu of the several datasets available, select the category eg Military and then a sub-category eg World War I or Royal Air Force and select a dataset you wish to search
