Great idea and I am officially pinned lol.

I'm on there. Maybe this could be a sticky topic? Also, once you've got your pin on the map, you can move it... so I put mine on the interstate near where I live. If somebody is planning to be driving that area, they can feel free to holler at me, and I can meet up with them at a gas station or cafe etc.

I think I did that right.

I added a pin for us- in a "big" town close to where we live....

Laney · 03-28-2012, 08:18 PM

Any progress on making this a sticky topic so we can meet new people in our area? I really like this idea. I'd hate for it to disappear with time...

I created an account and a map for this forum. I will just give everyone the username and password so you can all log in and add your address/area.

Steps:
Log in.
Type your address into the search bar at the top of the screen.
Click "Search".
Your address will pop up on the map. Click "Save Map Point".
A box will show up:
For "Point Name" I suggest putting your forum username (or real name) -
your dog(s) name. For example, mine is labeled "Laney - Rivers".
Don't worry about "zoom level" or "map type".
If you are uncomfortable with your exact address showing up, you can
delete it in the "Description" box. Whatever you type in there is what
it will show up as (maybe just delete the address but leave the city
and state...?).
You can add an image if you want

(it is picky about picture type/size).
And for "Icon", I was using "house2".
Then hit save.

There is a zoom option on the side of the map. It will be easy to look for other GSD lovers in your area and maybe make some new friends

This site is pretty easy to use.

Also, I have tested it; you do not have to re-post the map after you add your address. It will automatically update the link that I am posting now every time someone edits it. (But if you are curious there is a "Share this map" button at the top with brings up a link you can copy).

**If there is somewhere better on the site I should be posting this, or a better way to do this please let me know! I am new to this. Just thought it was a good idea and am trying to be proactive!**

That is so cool! I have to ask, though, why are there so few of us in a big state like Texas?

dogfaeries · 03-28-2012, 09:25 PM

If this is accurate, then there is a member less than a mile from me in Moore
