Hi there,



I am wondering if you guys do have your travel map included into any external websites. Did you know that after you login and you switch to the report view that there are some lines of code for you to copy and paste them into a website? Some people do have blogs, or private travel sites. So I am wondering if you use that and if yes, could you pass me a link (maybe into this forum). It would be interesting to see how that map looks like inside another page.



Best regards,



Andy

I have found this interesting map site in the web:



http://www.world66.com/myworld66/visitedCountries



You fill the squares with the names of the countries where you have been and then click in “Generate Map” at the bottom, and immediately you get the map of the world with your countries, which can be added to your web, in case you have one.

Perhaps should be a good idea to have in Globo a map like that one in the “about me” section of every member. That map would be complementary with the other one that we already have in Reports, because, sure, our members have been in more countries than those shown in Reports, but have not written reports about them. Then Wojciech Dabrowski would have the world full with red colour.



Just my two rupees

The GLOBO map is better than that at "world66" mentioned by Isaac. GLOBO shows some states and provinces seperatly which is a far better indication of travel experience. Example: because I visited Florida does not mean that Alaska, Hawaii and the whole USA should be marked, for Toronto not Vancouver etc. I see that Australia is defined that way too, why not Russia, RSA and Brazil too? Very big countries have worlds apart - that Moskva and Siberia, the Karoo dessert and Cape Town, Copocabana and the Amazonas?



Andy, I tested the current script at my private page at AOL but the "Easy Designer" software does not complete the graphics. At this time I cannot even load pictures, so I#m sure nothing wrong on this side.



... just, as in an old forum thread suggested, should the map also not show (different colours) what PICTURES and TIPS are contributed? I think we would win a lot of true "travellers" if this option can be developed and opened up because pictures require no words but REPORTS require a lot of english/german effort. You and many know that personally too. The map could remain in its current position since reporting also includes the other ways, photographically and reporting a travel travil-tip.



Also, please add Antarctica to the map, a dream visit of a few of us and I always hoped we could get some lonely and "chatty" members from there and more reports...



Just my two pfennings :-)

that link shows my country in Middle East, how far we are from Europe! hmm, I can go to Europe by passing a bridge that is only 1 km long:)
