Interest in (Google) Map of BLF Users?

Just added my location to the map.

Now I’m expecting some visits from all of you guys around the world :smiley:

Seems like M3TAL_LORD fixed it already. Enjoy! :)

Edit: To delete a push pin, you need to:
- switch to edit mode by clicking 'Edit'-button
- select your push pin (from the map or from left pane)
- click 'Delete' in edit box

Editing your info works the same way..

My placement got moved about 30 miles away! Wonder if this is going to prove very reliable if things can get shifted around so easily. Oh well.

added my place.

thanks :slight_smile:

Yes, that's a problem in Edit-mode. It's too easy to move push pins..

If that happens, please remember to click 'Undo' after the accidental move.

If the push pins keep moving and/or "funny" text appear (more than earlier today), I'll remove the edit rights from all users. After that you need to PM me to get your push pin added to the map..

But let's still try with the collaborative edit mode. Please be careful and don't mess up the map.

good idea

Took the first pin in New Jersey!

I’m in, first member from Mass…

that could get laborious!

I know there are ways to import a spreadsheet - although I suppose if that was open for editing we could have the same issues…

Hey FMc, you ever eat at Pappy’s on Union Blvd?

If you type in a given address where you want your icon to appear, there’s no need to edit the map. So use the street corner, 5th and Main, and the icon will appear right there. Done. No need to go into edit mode. If you don’t mind using your actual address, just put in the search bar and there ya go.

I think the OP was actually thinking of an automated system that would put a blip on the map in accordance to where you say you are in your profile. As Gords said, sb would be in the dark, somewhere….

DBCstm, you still have to add your username somehow, thats what edit is for.

I feel lonely in Germany. :/

Already 3 from Finland, big country and about 5.4 million people, Germany only has 82 million :D

Perkele!

I am in. Michigan.

Well, I guess we just have to be careful when in edit mode adding our username that we don’t skew the works.

I know the lonely feeling, all alone in TX…O-L’s gotta join me sometime or other! :slight_smile:

Thanks _the_. I now exist. I feel a little lonely though.

set the first fire in Maine. put my actual town, just not the actual address. its a small town so if some stalker wants to find me, wont be too hard though
edit: looks like north east USA and surrounding area is dominating in density (i say surrounding area because canada)

How do I edit my username on the map? I completely spaced about including that when adding the pin. Currently I’m a question mark and anonymous.

Also, I see Chicago X needs to change his username to New Buffalo X :wink:
