    I've been excited about the way you can find places on Google maps and personalize them for various reasons.

    In my attempt to share some of it, I incorrectly copied and modified Google images as Don pointed out to us.

    I was determined to make good use of these maps for the benefit of this forum and discovered that in creating personal maps with markers and annotations, these maps can be shared even if the other person does not have a GMAIL account.

    On the map you will find markers that when clicked on will pop-up a window with information.

    Or. you can click on the link in the menu at the left. This is handy if the markers are farther apart as maybe when you mark all the campgrounds you have visited in the USA.



    I've already started a few maps.

    Map #1 is RVPICS Users Locations. A while back I created a map of the top 20 RVPICS posters. Everyone thought it was cool, but I left it at that. The list of top posters has changed by now, so this would be a good opportunity for new users to add their home location.

    Map #2 is three locations for a possible future RVPICS Reunion. It is the center point of the 50 USA states, the center point of North America and the center point of the Lower 48 States.

    Map #3 is a map I started back when we had a thread about "Pick your 10 favorite spots to visit", or something to that effect. I plotted them on a map.



    Here's the deal.

    I'm giving out the GMAIL account name and password so that anyone on here can go to the Google maps, sign in and add to/edit existing maps or create new ones.

    We can discuss this and I will help anyone who has difficulty figuring out what to do.

    Let's see how it goes.



    go to http://maps.google.com

    sign in with user name "rvpics2@gmail.com

    and password "rvpics2gmail"
