Somebody Else is closest to me it seems...And the two Aussies seem to be the sole none US/European members so far.
This is quite a class idea. Sticky-ing please?

Re: org map
put your avatar on your desktop (drag it from the browser) and then "browse" to it, that's what i did.. my pic is of cleveland heights, where i live, but it made it too small to figure out what you are looking at.Originally Posted by drone
edit: i know you can drag the avatar from firefox, with IE you might need to "save as" or something.

Re: org map
The avatars are GIFs, I tried saving that and using it, no luck. I converted to JPG, still no luck. I'm thinking that it's not working because I didn't do it originally. You can add "Shoutouts" later, maybe not pics. Oh well.put your avatar on your desktop (drag it from the browser) and then "browse" to it, that's what i did.. my pic is of cleveland heights, where i live, but it made it too small to figure out what you are looking at.

Re: org map
The closest .Org member to me is InsaneApache, in Bradford. I'm near Huddersfield, but the damn thing made me put down Huddersfield. I actually live in a village called Shepley, several miles south-east of Huddersfield.
EDIT: Tokai, could you delete my first entry? I found that it actually knows where Shepley is.
EDIT EDIT: Gah, stupid thing!! It's still wrong!! It's put Shepley as being about a mile North-east of its actual position!!

Anyone know Google's timeline on integrating other countries' road maps into the Maps function? Looks like US, Canada, UK, Ireland, and Japan are the only ones so far.

Re: org map
But at least you got those beautiful leaves UK...and apparently all to yourself.
Seriously, look up on google images the town, or Vermont and tell me if those leaves are worth coming here. I can't stand the tourists clogging our streets. Hmmm maybe you'll get an image or two of MoosFest, check out those pointless bits of art. (Painted Moose(s?) that tourists seem to love)

Couldn't find where I live on the list so I just put Montreal. I'm about 100 klicks north of there.
The Tokai,
This is one of the best thread ideas ever.
