Ok so I then have to ask two questions, the first to BigBacon.

Can you post the link in each regional forum, so they all point to the same map?

My second question would be to admin Elara.

If he can post the link so it point to one map, would the forum be willing to sticky it so it would always be at the top of each forum?

If it would be stickied I will add the links.

If the zip code thing is really a concern for people then it can always be changed to just be the state or city. City is pretty much the same as zip just bigger area.

It kind of needs to be one or the other though. It can make it so you choose your state and then your city but it needs to a way to be able to link to where that place is on the map.

I just happened to have a listing of all zips code that included state, city and map coordinates, thats why I chose to use the zip but we can easily use city, it just involves the above of choosing state then city.

Also, if there is any thing else that people would want that doens't involve the forum itself to implement, let me know.

I wouldn't worry too much about changing it too something different. It doesn't bother me one bit, like said before just signing up to any web site if someone wants to find you they will. The zip is pretty easy to do and fast, and reguardless of how you change it there is always going to be someone that will still say something pretty much the same.

Plus I think ren might of been being a little sarcastic.

Yeah, I wouldn't worry too much about it.. my zip code doesn't even say the right city... close but not right. Hell my mailing address doesn't even show the right coordinates on google maps... it brings up the 7-11 a mile away.

me either ... mine shows our neighborhood pool :S
