I think family search should be able to make memories public for everybody and editable for a realtive that requests it on behalf of a deceased user. That way the memories arent just lost in the ether or pictures or people remain unidentified in perpetuity on family search.

Hey everyone, after the webinar I realized I needed to clarify my answer to the question of how I got screenshots from my phone. I said I followed the instructions for my phone (the method for taking screenshots varies from phone to phone), and then texted or emailed the screenshot to myself.
It might have sounded odd that I would text the screenshot to myself... but I have a text messing app on my laptop that allows me to read texts from my phone in the browser :) So when I text a screenshot to myself, I can open the text message on my laptop, save the screenshot, and then import it into my slide deck. Anyway, hope that helps someone!

The easiest way to add a picture when does not suggest the name when you type it is to go to the personal profile page and then click and add memory.
