Thanks Hon. I will change it smugly once I move! To be honest, I am jealous of myself.

to add your pin, click the map and fill out the short form. soon i can edit that form so some fields may go away if we decide they aren't needed. works best to zoom in real close before you add your pin so you can get real exact

[b]the slider bar at the upper left of the map will zoom you in and out. the arrows will move you left right and up and down.


the zoom will go way way down close. the map is centered on ambergris caye, so sliding the bar up will zoom you way in close onto the island. tho the last couple settings at the top (super super duper close) do not work, so if you set the zoom clear to the top, back up just a bit and up pops the island.

it's tied into google maps, so the detail is pretty neato.

in the upper right corner there are three square buttons. they change the view of the earth from a map with countries (MAP button), a view of the earth without boundaries and showing geographical forms (SATELLITE button), and a combination of both (HYBRID button).

amazing detail....

the ads at the bottom will go away soon (i did the pay version so there aren't ads but its going to take a couple days for them to change me over from the free version i guess), and the message board link is bogus and will go away too...

this should be fun

spots101x, the code they are looking for is in the grid right next to the text box. The one I'm looking at right now is 17C67 but it is totally random. If you need more help either post here or click on contact admin in the top tool bar.

Thanks, Hon. I'm now "on the map" though I'm pretty green at these things! I appreciate your help!

Hi, I see there's not been a post to this for awhile. For those of you who couldn't figure it out try again. I had troubles too. You have to remember to click "add yourself" on the left side first, then it gives you the buttons to push. It's pretty darn cool!

I'm new to the board and have never been to Belize - yet! My husband and I are planning our first trip there in late October and early November. We want to take a boat to Ambergris Caye from Xcalak - staying over 3 nights in San Pedro. Does anyone have any details on just how we'll accomplish this? Look forward to reading and learning more about Belize here.

Thanks,
Kathy
