U.S. Map

     How do you get those nice blank U.S. maps to color in with your postings?

Here us a link to the map page...some have pointed out the new forum format isn't letting them insert the maps into their profile, however...

You can not currently add these to your signature because of the website settings.  I guess you could add it as your profile picture.

     Thanks for the heads up.  Since we're just starting out with or new T@B S it would have been fun to start seeing our progress.

@verna or @Michigan_Mike , any chance of getting the forum settings upgraded to allow maps back in the signature?

I'm working on it now!

@Michigan_Mike thanks so much. Had been wanting to do the same as the kids want to see where they've been with the t@b.

I really don't know what happened to the ability to add small thumbnails & GIF images to the signature lines, but hope to have an answer soon.  It might be the new forum look and I've asked the Vanilla techs to look into this situation and should hear back shortly.

Thanks.

Try it now....  Max height 300 pixels and 400 wide.    We can try that out and see if things work out. If the images are too big we may have to reduce them some.

Works.  Nice job.

MANY thanks!

When using this link, look out for a virus called "online map finder".  It corrupted my safari browser and I had to pay a professional to get it removed.

@newell Thank you, and thank you for posting to both map threads!

Admin note: I removed the link to the map with a known nasty virus. I'm very sorry you got the virus, @Newell, but we can't risk infecting others.
