Now that there are quite a few members- wondered if there is anyway of having a member map - ie we can pin where we are located / County / Country etc, to see where there may be people near yourself??

Not sure if it is possible to do?

Good idea but not one I could execute.

 

[Ythsie]

Good idea...may be possible...but beyond my capabilities that!!!

I have not seen a map yet on any forums but thereappears to be a way to do this http://www.ehow.com/how_7344103_build-forum-members-google-maps.htmlhowever the forum admin would have to set it up and manage it.

I've added myself to the map. Is it visible to everyone?

 

[BlueMeanie]

Hopefully to all that have the link....

Great idea, there must be a simple way to administrate the map.

Be careful where you put the pins.....

.........dont put it right outside your front door (in other words!!).........pin the area not the actual........Pin your supplying dealer would be a good one!!

It's easy to do, but you must respect confidentiality. We are not E Bay hackers. Need to invite people to join.

Just added a pin. Great idea by the way....

 

[BlueMeanie]

Seems you also add images etc... will try and find a suitable image with the Car in it to add in there.
