Marc Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Member Maps Hi All, There was a suggestion made a few days ago regarding having a map where we can show where everyone is on the forum. WHAT IS OUR MEMBER MAP? The member map has been create with a program called vbgooglemaps which will allow you to pinpoint your location on a map with a pushpin. You will also be able to see other peoples pushpins on the map and hover over pushpins to see who they belong to. All pushpins are colour coded for each usergroup, so you will be able to see where admins are, supermods, mods, premium members/donators and registered members. WHERE CAN I FIND IT? If you click on the QUICKLINKS menu in the menu bar, you will find it under MemberMaps at the bottom. Click here and adding yourself it fairly self explainatory by clicking Your Entry, then clicking your location on the map, then clicking the Update Information button. !!!READ THIS WARNING FOR YOUR OWN BENEFIT!!! As it is googlemaps, you could pinpoint your location down to the exact house if you wished to do so. This is up to you, however be aware that all other logged in members can see that location. Personally I chose the center of my home town rather than my street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
