I think Bill's map is great, but now once again, the momentum in getting everyone on the map and contact information is fading away.

Do we have to have an illness or a breakdown with assistance needed to inspire people again!:mad:

C'mon, lets get it done and have a link on the POG site to the map. We don't need two maps, can't Dale's and Bill's be combined to produce one Map?

Nice work Bill. I didn't see at first how far in you could zoom to place your marker, so I have two! The first one I did at the original map (US) size and it ended up in Joshua Tree!. The second one is right on top of my house LOL.. Cool deal.

warren-
you'll be happy to know there's a place in myrtle beach called Workshop Tools. their sign out front sez, in big letters, "Daycare for Men". workshoptools.com. there's one in sevierville as well - see you there.

thanks for the comments. as it turns out, if you put exactly the same name/text in the "member" field in the new one, the old one was deleted automagically. as soon as the page is refreshed, the old one should disappear.

thanks to you also, tc

Wish I would have known this when I entered our info.....our arrow puts us about 30 miles south of where we actually live but oh well--maybe an edit feature will appear via Bill one of these days;)

You missed the edit info Deb. It's a couple posts above this.:D

Tom, at this point in time two maps are needed.

It is useful to see all the locations with names showing and to be able to print

the list of location data and the map by those wishing a hard copy in anticipation

of not having computer and internet access.

Tried to enter my infor as Paul Horner did and hit "sqave" and nothing happened. Tried to retreive the info and that damn Horner's name kept coming up.

I know I'm challenged when it comes to this crap. Help

thats because i haven't implemented the squave button yet, just the save. ;-)

actually, sounds like you're clicking too close to paul horner's. move the map til paul's marker is at the center of your screen (you can "grab" the map by pressing the left mouse button somewhere where there is no marker, holding the button down, and move the map. as you click you can see the hand change), zoom in (using the + sign at the upper left).

after you've zoomed in several clicks of the +, you can place another marker. if you zoom in enough, you'll be able to see individual sites. the map starts at zoom level 4 (where you can see the whole US). at about level 14 you can see individual sites. keep adjusting the position of the map between each click or two. just keep paul's marker in the center of the screen, then zoom in a click or two.

after you get in really close, click the "hybrid" button on the upper right corner. find out-do resorts, find your space (zoom in a bit more if necessary), place your marker, and voila, success.

the reason you have to keep centering paul's marker is that, as the map goes to successively smaller scale (zoomed in), distances grow proportionaly. if you keep zooming in on paul's locn, you'll see his marker is on the entrance ramp to I95. clearly, for the purposes intended, "close" is good enough. but if you want to be completely anal, er, accurate, about this , you can zoom in on your own lot at out-do resorts.

if you still have problems, either gimme a call or ask kathy. :-)

I am learning if you don't check this site every day you can get behind quickly.

Better late than never - add me to the POG Map.

I am on the Chesapeake Bay about 6 miles from the town of St Michaels, Maryland. (The town that fooled the British). I have parking and a full hook-up. I am in the process of building another garage to work on my bus. Jon is mentoring me on this garage so within a few months I may have a decent place for service . Be advised it will never be in the same league as Jon's.
