Uploading/Updating GEDCOM?

Is there a way to update your gedcom on ancestry,com without losing the photos, stories, sources and links that have been added through the ancestry,com editor? I only know to delete the old gedcom and then resubmit the new updated one. In the process I lose all Photos, stories and links to my website. Am I missing something here? It seems you should be able to simply update a gedcom without losing images and such that were uploaded directly to the ancestry,com editor.

Adding new people to my tree through the ancestry,com editor would not work because then I could not use the gedcom for rootsweb.com as I have html code in my notes section which displays photos on my worldconnect page which would be lost.

I've never used Ancestry,com for this reason (rootsweb is so much more versatile) but everyone is using my research for their trees on ancestry,com except for me so I would really like to have mine up there with my photos, stories, sources and links without losing it all next time I update my gedcom.

Thanks,
Kurt
