    Hi Seb and welcome to the forum. You have set the bench mark for all the worlds other online cemeteries.

    As Ron said what a shame CWGC isn't like that :(

    Dear Verrieres,
    Thanks for having appreciated our project.
    We need to redo some photos that are not good.
    I think that everything will be finished in two weeks.

    Dear Sicily43,
    I think that it's possible to do the same work also for Catania German cemetery although this only appears as a big common grave.

    My intention is to create a big archive for these men .

    Dear englandphil,
    In Sicily, these young men are remained into oblivion for a long time.
    Their sacrifice must be remembered to new generations especially on the web!
    For any collaboration, you can rely on me.
    Best regards

    Sebastiano, fantastic effort as with the previous two. What is the plan now, do you have any thoughts about extending the area in which you build the sites for, or developing the software for others to use for other cemeteries
