Log into google maps, click edit, add your pinpoint to your home location (doesn't have to be directly on your house), et voila, let's build a new OcUK user location map.

https://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?m...0&ll=54.567036,-1.16999&spn=0.005082,0.013937



Edit, i suppose i should add that i've changed the option to add yourself to the map due to abuse, which was a shame. If you want adding to the map then post your postcode or town or wherever and i'll add it when i get chance.

I'm thick. I added a pin but it just gives it the location name - how do I change it to my name?

tried both of those things, neither work. No matter what I do I never get a marker

Can someone just add a marker for me in the middle of Reading Uni's campus please (whiteknight's lake should be right next to it)

how do you add your username and location. We need instructions in the OP. :p

Right click on map, choose add marker and you get the following...

Then put your username and description in and click OK.

Looks like the map can easily get edited. Is there a way to lock it down so people cannot mess it up?

The only way i can do that is if i take full control, but that would mean people emailing me where they want their pointy thing!
 
Well in that case, i'll lock it down if people abuse it from now.

Liampope, do you live in the sea off Norway?
 
Whoever John was, well done, pretty childish, i've locked it now, if you want putting on the map then tell me where you want putting on and i'll put you on.
