Thanks for the link, Christine. Can you reprint how to correct a person's
location? I'm sitting out in the Atlantic, along with Stan Horwitz (but I'm
sure that's not bad, either!).

Skip the larger icons.

Well, to redo your location, I need to delete your old icon first.
Then, you need to zoom in real close on the location, down as far as
you can. Do that BEFORE placing your next marker. Just keep on
zooming in, down to your location. You can often zoom down to street
level. Putting the map setting on hybrid can often help in finding
"your" house, as well.
Only AFTER you do this, do you place your marker. If you place the
marker before this, you end up in weird places, like the ocean.

You can move the map with your mouse, if you hold down on the left
mouse button and move the map. That way, you can keep on zooming down
to a specific spot.

Hope this helps a bit.

Christine

Thank you very much! Is very useful this map !!

Glad to see you finally made it on the map. I checked your location
when this map thingy first started and there wasn't anything (towns,
highways etc) on the map for your neck o' the woods.

Are you saying you've moved to a different town since we first spoke
about where you live in Italy?

Yes, it does help. Please delete my old icon and I'll try again. Boy, the
Eastern Seaboard is pretty crowded! Thanks, Christine.

It's not so bad after you zoom in, Dora. I'm sure you'll find a niche
for yourself.

Thanks, sf. I did a dry run a few minutes ago - I can get pretty close to
where I live but the map's not too clear. I was puzzled, though -
momentarily, a street map flashed across the screen then disappeared. I
wasn't able to get it back. Is there an easy way to access it - I could
then find my house, probably.

May I add something? When you ask Christine (or me?) to delete your icon,
please specify which one. When I was helping out with this in the past I
found a lot of people had already added themselves more than once and I had
no idea which icon to delete

Thanks either to you, Jill, or to Christine. I have only one icon, sitting
in the Atlantic off the Maryland coast. I'd just like to get out of that
lifeboat and go home.

I don't have the link for "admin" access anymore so I guess Christine will

What is the "hybrid" setting, Christine? Also, I had an actual street map
flash by and disappear - it would help to know how to bring that up.

Could you please delete mine, too? It's the one north-northeast of
