Cookshack Forum Friend Mapper

Does it take a while to get on the map? I've tried it twice and am a "no show."

Neat idea although I think your gonna need a bigger map ... lol

Please explain the part shoutout. I don't understand.

Wheelz,be sure you have input in the shoutout.

Great idea Smokin!!!

drhys,
You put some type of greeting like Hello.....

KathyE' Thanks a lot.

Smokin... thats kool!! Thanks....

Just did this, it looks like i live in the southern part of NY or the northern part of PA.

I doubt anyone will ever find me by this map. it will be interesting to see how large the list gets.

the map is such a cool idea. I had no idea ol'coacher was so handsome.

Why thank you KathyE, I had a very hard time playing and coaching football.

Russ, when i first asked the ? about how many members in each state i did't think it would come to this. the map is a great idea. with 22 members so far fl. leads with 5.
thanks for another great job.

Hey I just saw another forum using it.

If you "double click" it will center the map on a location.

Then you can "zoom" down to the city based upon the zip code.

Just something fun to try.

Smokin'

Lots of fun! Great addition.

We're up to 54 members, have you joined?

Don't forget to add a pic....serious or other wise.

Mallard,
I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but I think,after looking at the photos on the Forum map, that you and OldCoacher must be related....There isnt much distance between AR and OK.Maybe the ancestors traveled back and forth while hunting for mallards to whack.
I am going to find a good picture of "me" and try to add it too.I may be related to you two also. Kathy

You know KathyE, I think you hurt my feelings. I really cleaned up for this photo so It would really really look good to enter in this forum.

Well,
I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.Didn't I say you were handsome?? Are you trying to say that you think you look better than Mallardwhacker??
Like I said, wait until I get a picture on here.

I'm trying to figure out what is going on in Smokin Jimi's picture! When it comes up, the top half is cut off, and all I see is a pair of human legs and a pair of tiger legs, and it doesn't look like they are dancing...

No, the tiger is behind Smokin' Jimi, as I recall..What could it be doin' back there?Standing on its hind legs?

Hey Ron, you have to scroll the photo down by holding down your pointer and dragging it down.

Hey KathyE, I can't wait until you have your photo entered!

Looks like I'm the only forum member in Western Australia!!!! None of the BBQ's Galore stores over here stock CS products, and it's a shame, cuz they do stock Brinkmann and BGE products, which aren't so user friendly!!! CS should get a sales rep to talk to them, I think!!!! This map is a really cool idea, Smokin'. I really like the satellite imagery too.

Cheers,

Micah

Yeah, I figured that out, but it was more fun to post about it when it was cut off...

OldCoacher,
You may have to prompt me on how to get a picture on there.Right now I am in Vicksburg MS at a Marriott so may not have my photo on here for several weeks. It will be worth the wait..
Before I come back though I will have met a few of the Forum members in Mineola...Yay!!!

KathyE, Just do the same but click on Browse and pick a photo in your pictures files. Then click on Add Me. I can't wait.

...it is the local "tree forking " issue

Great idea Smokin'! Is there a chance you can get the map posted as a link at the top of the page with the profile, search, and FAQ links?

Would take a little web work, but I want to see where it goes. Some of the other forums had some "problems" with it, so I want to test it a while before we make it permanent.

I'll put it as a link on the top of the forum list as a "forum favorite", in this forum.

Smokin'

Thanks!

It is neat. You can put it on sattle light and zoom in so well, that you can actually pick out neighborhoods and larger buildnings such as factories.

Got mine on!

Nice map but it has its problems. It took me three days to get the program to take my input, but it did not load my picture. Now no one will every know what Papa Pig looks like. I even bathed and combed my hair for the picture and it wasn't even Saturday night. I knew this sight was too good to be true.

The map has a nice view in close-up. I was able to locate my house, my son's school and a few other places in Darmstadt, Germany. If you look real close you can almost see the smoke from my 009 making some baby backs.

I do not know who Google had help make the program, but Darmstadt is in Hessen, not Hassia. Hassia is a German bottled water company. Next time they make an error they should name my German State after a good beer, not bottled water. I suspect it was a programmer from India.

How come there is nobody from North or South Carolina?

There's 2 from NC. None from SC.

What kind of suprises me, is that for an OK based company, the heavy weighting in the eastern half of the country. Maybe just indicative of forum participants and not actual sales.

I placed my name on the map, but it says remove my shout out and does not show my e-mail. Can you fix it or tell me how.

You can't fix it, I have do. I'll just delete it and you can put a new one in.

OK thanks. I'll enter it again.

Thought I'd post here and bring the map back to the top of the Forum. We've added quite a few new people recently. This is a cool tool that Smokin found.

Add yourself to the map. Let's see if we can get every state and province covered
