New Phoogle Map link on FIC

Post by franny » Fri Nov 27, 2009 6:36 pm

How did I get on there? And how do I change it? It has me in Europe, but I'm actually on the west coast of Canada! :shock:

Love this idea. =D>

You just can move your marker to the place you want.
Don't forget to use zoom.
Europe location is by default.

I'm having difficulty changing my location. It won't let me move my marker... :?:

EDIT: Nevermind, I found it. I was trying to edit it on the actual Phoogle page. #-o For those still wondering how to do it go to User Control Panel, then in the options panel click Profile, and click Edit Phoogle Map. Drag your marker to your area.

Pretty easy, and extremely convenient. Great idea ikhom.

If you go into your Profile, there is a new option for you to edit yourself onto this map.

Very cool - thanks Crystal and Hilary!

For those of you who are still not sure what we are talking about.

A new modification was added to the site that allows you to put you on a map.
You access the map from Phoogle Map that is located on left side of the screen above The team.
To select your location you need to go to Edit Phoogle Map Profile from User Control Panel and Profile.
You can drag your marker to your location. Use zoom out and zoom in on a map.
Select YES to Show my marker on Phoogle map.
Choose your map marker. (Last two markers have a bug that needs to be fixed.)
You can add comment with pictures.
Press Submit.

And go to Phoogle Map to see your location.

Cindy and Bill, I don't see you guys on the map...is there something wrong with my end of the screen? Candace's marker is in the ocean I think.

Yes...I am in the Gulf of Mexico treading water :shock:
I was trying to get to the beach there but the thing plooped me in the water. I have gone back to the profile page and it seems you can only move yourself once???? Help, before I drown =P~

Domenic, I can see you. Candace...I'll save you, you are floating away!!!!! I had to move the hand over the little bubble guy and drag and drop it a few times before it stayed where I wanted it. Try enlarging the map a little before doing it. When the map is small Candace you looked like you are on land.

Domenic, I am right above the words Tampa/ Palm Harbor or Florida depending on the size of the screen.

Candace I enlarged the screen, are you floating over to see Sally????

Candace,
If you don't see your marker in Edit Phoogle Map Profile because you selected one of the last two markers.
Last two markers have a bug. Select any other markers. Press Submit and then go back to move your marker.

Hey I'm there too - honest! But I only see myself and five others.

No freshwater sharks around here. :mrgreen: Hope you have a life-raft Candace!! You're not off visiting Europe again, are you?
