    but hey, you're right. That's too dark. So I moved to the post office.

    Every time I tried to put myself on the Google map, it causes my work computer to lock up. So I gave up. If anybody wants to, or is able to, point out my location (Pittsburgh, PA), please feel free.

    OK Nails, you're on the map at Pittsburgh now.

    Figured I might as well do it while I still remembered how.

    The HF Google Map slows my work PC to a crawl when loading. My work PC is a piece of crap.

    I did notice that people have been using the self edit feature. The placemarks on the map have gone from ~174 to about 185 since I changed it so that anyone can edit it. That's great to see more spots on the map.

    I will try and update the original GM thread with instructions for editing the maps as soon as I can.

    Thanks.

    As a footnote, I first read this and then tried to access the map, immediatley grinding my already-slow computer to a screeching halt. Oh well, I'm an idiot.

    You're going into the woods with a complete stranger who goes postal???

    Coolness on the icon. Naturally I had to figure out how you did that. The cat is out of the bag now! Let a thousand icons bloom. If I'd stayed in the graveyard I coulda put in in a little grave marker icon.

    I know the flag is too big, I'll take it down before going home tonight...
