Map locator
« on: February 06, 2008, 09:55:59 AM »
We have added the world map locator so that everyone can place a pin where they are from.  When the pin is clicked on the username will appear, their avatar if they have one, and a company name if its in your profile.
We would appreciate if everyone could put a pin on there location.

If you have any problems with it let me know.

Thanks

Wow!  That is cool.  I went way down to lots of detail on the map to Oregon, then Dallas the to Pioneer Rd. When you get to almost the North end of the "loop" you will see a little road drop to the South into the middle of the loop.  That little road is on my property.  It is the road to the mill and the other major buildings on the farm.  Our house is at the top of the loop right where the little road comes off of the county road. 

Neat stuff, Kirk.  Thanks.  I was even able to place a flag close to my location on the world map,

Hey Frank, Once you place your flag you need to save the changes with the button at the bottom. 

No flag in Oregan right now so I figure it just didnt get saved.

You can access it from your profile on the menu at the top.

Once you into your profile section click on teh Forum Profile Information button on the left side. It will pull up your information and at the bottom of the page you will find the Map options with instructions below it.

I clicked on "Member Map" at the top row of links that start with "Home, Help, Search" etc and a world map popped up with members showing who put the pin in the map through their profile.

No problem, it happens!  There's a lot to look at around here and so little things like that are easy to miss.
