    Indeedly, I mustn't have zoomed in enough whilst counting :D.
    Would be great to see what that map looks like in a few months time.

    maybe change the title and add something like "ANTENTION" or something KD, as it is it just sounds like a map and not so much a collection of players.,

    Interesting idea - I've added myself to it too. With a bit of work, you could expand this with recommended routes to sites, or have the sites as a separate Google Maps overlay with links to relevant web sites or other info - I know it's not what you're aiming for right now, but there's room for some great stuff to help the community there. Let me know if you need an extra hand, you probably know a lot more about AJAX and Google services than me, but every little bit helps, as Tesco says ;)

    Nice one.

    Yeah, I was gonna do a .kmz affair which would allow all that kinda stuff but that would mean alot of manual entering. Keith suggested the API version which is much more accesible.

    The one thing I would say is can you change the colour of the retailers and site KD? Haven't used the system so I dunno if its possible.

    That's pretty much my plan, for now it just sticks a marker on everyone, but I will add extra information so that retailers and sites have a separate icon with a link to their website.

    It would also be fairly easy to add a pop out link on the sites/retailers that would use the google maps main site to give you directions.

    Am I the only one who thinks having more than the skirmish sites and retailers, i.e. providing fairly close geographical indications of where airsofters and their airsoft gear (which can be correlated using the gear photo thread) are, is not so hot an idea :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,163 ✭✭✭✭Boston


    It is and it isn't. Depends on how close the mark is to their home. Apart from that it potentially handy for organising lifts and the like.


  • Registered Users Posts: 36,167 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    If somebody is so thick as to actually to mark their particular house then they deserve what they get.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,994 ✭✭✭ambro25


    You're quite the charmer, Lethal_B, aint you? :rolleyes:

    While not so eloquently put, that's exactly right, I don't expect people to pinpoint their exact address on the map, I certainly didn't.

    seems im still the only person in wexford


  • Registered Users Posts: 816 ✭✭✭gungun


    its just not fair

    So someone makes a mistake on the internet, and they deserve to be robbed? I agree that no one is being forced to do this and its their own fault if they ignore the instructions clearly given by kdouglas, but they certainly don't deserve to get robbed. One thing you'll learn is that the Irish internet community is tiny and in my experience theres usually at most 3 degrees of separation between people.

    nope, it's stored seperately in a database on the IAA server.
