Excel Family Member Locations Map

I've started an Excel Family Member Locations Map here. Please use the same moniker that you use on this forum. You may also add an avatar to your location and change your location at anytime.
Feedback? Good/bad idea? Changes?

Added our location to your map. Thanks for having this. It will be interesting to see all the dots added to the map. Should fill in fast.

THanks John. added ourselves to map

John, I tried several times to add ourselves to the map but received the following message:

Bad Gateway
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
------------

Apache/2.0.52 (CentOS) Server at www.buddymapping.com Port 80


Looks like there's a problem with the Internet's internal communications. I will try later.

Thanks for starting this map Chief, a really neat idea!

As of the date/time of this post we have 12 Excel Family members on our location map. Please note, you have the option of adding your avatar to your map profile. don't be concerned about the size of the image file as the map program will resize automatically. If you have an image on your computer, you can upload as your avatar. Any problems, PM me -- thanks.

New member joined our location map, "clbrown" of Whitney, TX -- I don't believe you have joined iRV2.com and our Excel Owner's Forum-- not that this is a requirement, but does provide an association between forum members and map members. AND, you become a member of the Excel Family!

On edit, I'm adding these unfamiliar Excel owners:
"Dan Henry" of Caddo Mills, TX
"Smiths" of Tijeras, NM

I've reset the required information to include the "Excel Forum Name" -- if this causes any problems I'll delete.

John,

I am clbrown on the map. I forgot that my forum name was different. How do I edit my information on the map to indicate my new location when I relocate?

Thanks for the map I think it is a good idea.

edit: Or change my name for that matter.

Curt

Thanks Curtis and Welcome to iRV2.com and the Excel Owner's Forum! I edited your user name on the map to reflect your forum name. I've also added our "Excel" tag.

If a family member does not have an avatar, I will add the Excel logo as the default avatar. Users have the option of changing.

LindaH (Linda) has joined our Excel Owner's Map and is our 20th family member. The map idea seems to be gaining momentum.

Great idea, John!

It looks like one can only put in a town/city, not GPS coordinates (didn't really spend a lot of time perusing the site, so this may not be accurate). As we move from place to place, we're not always near a town, but I'll put in the one nearest to us...then anyone interested can click on the map URL in my signature, below, to see our exact location.
