Mabfan's Musings

I think the google map link is broken...

Fixed.

Man, it would have been awesome if a little image of the cow in question popped up instead of the google teardrop thing...

cshiley, what do you mean by wanting the image to "pop up" instead appearing in a "teardrop" (aka google marker info window). Do you mean you would rather the image apepar as your coursor hovers over a marker? I know that the google map api allows for tooltips (which appear from a hover) but I've never tried tham and don't know if they support images. I don't think it's what you want, but the images in the "teardrop" window can be clicked for a larger image.

I think csbermack meant that it would be cool if each teardrop was a tiny graphic of a cow instead. Then again, csbermack may want actual pictures of each cow to appear as one scrolls over the locations.

I think popup is the wrong word, actually. The map indicates a location with a teardrop with a little dot in it, and you click on that for more information. I think it would be cool if those teardrops were images of cows. Perhaps... a cow on a stick, or in a ballon, or something. It would be awesomest if the cow were the cow in question, but even a generic cow would be entertaining.

mabfan's suggestion of the right cow appearing when you roll over the location is also good. :) Mostly I think I'm looking for both "Hah, cow theme. Cute." and also a way to see images tied to location without having to click through anything.

Regardless, it's a pretty cool toy. Thanks!

Yea. Maybe this time I can get one!
