should probably post this here too..

I went ahead and switched over the Google Maps using Mqrius's front end (Thanks for releasing your source =])

All the maps sent to me within the last few days should be showing up on the new map.

Need to finish ironing out a few small bugs, then automatic processing should resume sometime tonight (as in EST)

Also, feel free to PM town Names and locations and I can try to add them in.

Enjoy!

I'm loving this change. My friends and myself can now discuss where locations are with precision. Thank you for your effort on the map.

Yay for changes!

Maps now server off two different machines (one in the US, and the other in the UK)

Autoupdating it now back to working, map changes may take a few minutes extra since they need to sync the tiles to the other machine.

Turned zooms 3-8 into .JPG's to speed up loading for some people and reduce bandwidth usages.

I will probably create a special link for a version that is just straight PNGs since I now have more bandwidth to play with

About 76% of the total world is mapped

Report any mismatching errors to me in a PM

Keep on mapping!

Good work! Is there any chance we're getting town names on the map as it was with Mqrius? :)

No one has sent me any town names in a PM yet, which is not surprising.....

There's an easy way to find where I am at this huge map?
