That is very cool. I can't even see the map Stuart's talking about.

And Google does not yet support the Mac.

The Map features work fine on my MAC. However, not able to input the coordinates for the map unless it's on a PC. MACs do rule though!

Hi Guys,
great features. I noticed when you click on members it comes back to Rebreather World home page. Can we make this linked to the member's public profil?

Hey this map is just tops. No matter what country I find myself in I know i can pick myself up a Breather. Would suggest you mark your place a few streets away just in case.... Prying eyes may love to know where a nice shiny new toy is located.

Cheers

Did someone ever invent Forum's Nobel?

Great Job Stuart, unbelievable. Do you still have time to work?

Fiuuuuuu, if you did this job when my ex-girlfriend was still around...it could have been dangerous, no way to hide myself. Where's the privacy?

Wow! almost too cool for words....

I can check and see if the bilge pump is still working on the boat - if it's still floating next to the dock Yeah!

I'll sign up for the pro version if it sees shipwrecks in Lake Superior, I'm sure Big Brother has something like this available?

would save a lot of time side scaning

There was a thread on another forum, DiveOz, http://www.diveoz.com.au/discussion_...?TOPIC_ID=9851
that looked for shipwrecks with google earth and they came up with some good ones.... me, I just look for sinkholes in people's paddocks...

Cheers all, JDZ

Edit: btw, if you haven't already found it, there is a tilt toggle on the right hand side of the "joystick" which is REALLY neat....

Thanks for the feedback and the bunch of PMs....

OK here are some things that will be done that you some of you asked for...

1 - Link to members profile will be activated

2 - Seperate overlay showing our Rebreather Friendly destinations - where they are in the world with a link to their entry

3 - Seperate overlay showing dive sites be they cave or wreck and an individual link to a thread to discuss them.

2 and 3 might be just one overlay - not sure yet....
