Pin Your Location!

In an attempt to aid member location and for a bit of fun the following zeemaps page has been setup: https://www.zeemaps.com/map?group=1203803

To add your location it is best done using a general area rather than your post code to avoid advertising where your bike is stored! I entered "Norwich" rather than my street/post code for example.

The basic steps to add yourself on the map are:

Click 'Additions' on the tool bar and select 'Add Marker - Simple' or 'Add Marker - Detailed', your choice
Enter your forum user name/nickname (and your real first name as well would be good e.g. Kaivalagi aka Mark)
A rough location...
Click the submit button
Make sure you save the URL from the popup after submitting so you have the ability to edit your pinned location later on.

e.g.
http://i781.photobucket.com/albums/y...psbwqpi1k4.jpg

This sort of thing has been used elsewhere in this forum and others to good effect in the past, hopefully it'll be of some use here too.

Mods: If you would like admin access PM me an email addy and I can add you in

Re: Pin Your Location!

If it was using the same site as the Ear one that site has vanished off the Internet...hence creating this for the EAR initially and then sharing for all here

Re: Pin Your Location!

My computer knows that I am in Turkey, so when I went to pin my location, it opened the map at Fethiye.

Yep, it's set to open at your estimated location (based on IP)
