TT forums World map

Post by Born Acorn »

I (with help) want to make a TT forums world map, in essence, a big map of the world, with people names next to where they come from, so we have a world map of TT forums users.

but I need a big world map inline, but the only I foundwhere ones you subscribe for. :(

can anyone help?

(it must be blank) :wink:

You can get free (in the public domain) maps from the CIA World Fact Book. See for example http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/fac ... world.html or http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/fac ... world.html

I'm quite suspicious, so I won't tell my exact location. :)

You could just put me to Helsinki, Finland, even though I'm not from that city.
