Following on from the "Where in the UK..." thread

[Angela]

Does everyone know about the google map showing vapers locations around the world?

The UK is looking rather pathetic at the moment with only about 5 dots on the map!

Add yourself to it here: Lives saved by vaporizers - Google Maps

Directions:

1. Click on "Sign In" in the top right-hand corner and either sign in or create a google account
2. To the left of the map, you will see a list of people who have already added their location. At the top of this list, there is an 'Edit' button. Click on that and the necessary icons will appear at the top of the map
3. Use the arrows and the +/- bar on the map to zoom in to your location
4. Click on the blue baloon icon (next to the hand icon) and drag a blue ballon to you location. Click when it's in the right place
5. A balloon will appear and you can add your forum name (and a little comment if you want)
6. Click 'OK' when you're done
7. Click 'Done' (situated at the top of the list of names to the left of the map.... wher you found the 'Edit' button)

Let's see if we can put the UK on the map (literally )

Just done !!!

Great

How do I get a signature like yours Angela ?!!

Top of every page on the blue bar "User CP", then on the menu on the left you will see "Edit signature". In there you will find a box to add the code to (Tip: from memory, I think the first time zi tried it gave me an error message saying it ws too big, or some such. To get around this, reduce the font size.... it doesn't affect the projected image)

All Done Angela !

I didnt know this existed... brilliant idea !

 

[hifistud]

That's me added...

But where's yours, Christena??

 

[Angela]

Keep 'em coming folks!

Christena: yep, looks like something went wrong when you did it because you're not on there!

 

[googled]

Added myself and a vaping friends location. Still only 11 locations but it's a start. I don't think PV's have spread to Scotland or Ireland yet, obviously too tight to buy them .

If anyone wants adding due to lack of Google account or any other reason just make a request.

You also have to be a full member (if I remember correctly), so a few more posts will be needed first.

Another vaper on the map, thanks for the instructions

 

[Angela]

Great to see a few more dots on there!

Yeah... thought I'd add detailed instructions because it took me a while to work it out from the rather scant instructions posted elsewhere! (Just hope that no-one thought I was treating them like an idiot!
)

I know there are quite a few Scottish vapers around, plus at least a couple of Irish ones, so there is no reason that they should be devoid of blue dots!

Spread the word around to any other forums you visit as well.... Id would be great to make the UK & Ireland one great bit blue blob! LOL!
