New feature! Google Member Map

[Hawkes]

Today I hacked some code and got the Helios theme to show a MAP button.  For those of you who don't know, you can set a pin on a map in your profile showing where you live (or not).  Due to sheer laziness, I never added the button to the default Helios Theme which is the red and black.  Today I was bored and hacked at code and put a button up.  Check it out when you get a chance and see where your teammates live.

On a side note, most additions to the site will always show up in the forum default SMF Core theme.  There are a couple additional buttons if you change your theme to that one.  As I get bored again, I'll port them over to the Helios theme.

Oh, and 10t0n do you really live all the way up there?

How do I look at this?

[Hawkes]

First set up your location by clicking Profile, then Forum Profile Information, scroll to the bottom when the page loads, zoom in on your location on the map using the controls on the left.  When you find your location, click the map where you want your pin and save your profile. 

The member map is located by clicking the MAP button in the menu bar at the top of the site pages.

That is pretty friggin sweet Hawkes.  I had noticed this in the profile and I've had it setup for a while.

Anyone else get freaked out about the whole google map thing.  zooming in on places gives me the jibblies for some reason.  Not in the paranoid sense, but a 'wow I feel small' sense
