200sx owners location map? [Archive]

I was thinking it'd be cool to know where we all are in relation to each other.
I know there would be those who wouldn't want all and sundry finding out where they live so my idea was this, those that want to be included goto www.multimap.com type in yer post code, get the piccy up, go to 1,000,000 scale press alt-printscreen, then paste into your fave arty prog, then cut out the bit with you in like this....

http://www.plevin.demon.co.uk/images/tprdamski.gif

save it as a gif, and send to me (qdos@blueyonder.co.uk) with "SXOC map" in the subject.

I'll stick in yer name and join them all up and stick them all on my site, for all to see.

Well? Now I sit back and wait for feedback.... I'll edit this post when I throw the first piccy up...

I'm guessing you wont get much of a response to this one. There are some that dont mind people knowing what town they live in (like me, look at location) but there are also an awful lot of people that are no more specific than 'South East' and clearly want to minimise the risk of anything happening to their baby.

yeah one thing is saying roughly (town) where you live but post code? LOL

hes not after postcodes... but little 1,000,000 scale maps :) to paste altogether... nice idea... but there is a lot of paranoia in the world!

As Matt said, it's a very low detail map with a big red ring around where you are, which at that scale is 55.52 square miles, you probably give more away in your location detail on the left.
Just thought it would be nice to see where everyone was in relation to each other, the sx you see everyday on the way to work could live just round the corner.

But hey, always nice to get a flamed when your trying to do something for everybody! I'll know better next time.

No one was flaming you chap, I dont think they realised that you only wanted a low scale map. some people just saw post code and went waaahhhh.

I think this is what he's after chaps so dont panic.

PMSL very subtle matehttp://www.wdbb.co.uk/images/smiles/icon_thumbsup.gif

At that scale it's not a bad idea and if it was put in the members area instead then it 's not seen by everyone.:)

Qdos.
You've been around for well over a year and will know the banter that goes on here.

The map is a daft idea. Noone wants the internet to know where they live and even if they did, we'd end up with a map of the UK with a lot of dots in cities and fewer in the countryside.

Relax and accept the consequences of silly suggestions like we all have to do all too often :thumbs:

Q

any chance of a map of where your car will be :p

we all get shit days in work and you caught me after a really bad one and just before " a weekend away "

needless to say my other 200 now has very extensive security measures uninstalled ;) ;) ;)

Qdos

25-07-2003, 00:25

Chris,

If you look in my sig to the left you'll see exactly where I am, well within 10 inches anyway, my cars well alarmed and I pay my insurance, so why get paranoid, if someone really wants it that badly, they'll take it, and there's nothing you or I can do about it.

"extensive security measures uninstalled"

Are you mad, you took the alarm off!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

Chris

25-07-2003, 00:39
