You just need to edit your profile. You should see this: <img src="http://www.world66.com/myworld66/visitedStates/statemap?visited=CAFLVA"> Just add the new state code to the end of the CAFLVA string. For example, if you've been fortunate enough to have been to Texas, the full string would be CAFLVATX Remember that you need to enter your password when editing your profile, or it won't take.

+Miragee Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 As long as you are working on your map, check out this site, if you haven't already. Their maps are very nice. Quote Link to comment
+over the arizona hill gang Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 you're one up on me. I can't figure out how to get the map on my page to begin with. i'm no great computer type. can you help? Quote Link to comment
+Miragee Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Have you created one of the maps? If so, right click on it and Save it to your hard drive. Make sure you save it somewhere you can find it, like in a new folder like Geocaching/Maps. Then, go to your GC.com Profile page where you can upload a picture for either your Avatar or your Picture. Click on that link. Now, navigate to the map image and upload the file. Click on the map and when it opens up full size, Right click on the image and copy the URL. Now, on your Profile page, edit it using HTML and insert this code: <Center> <img src="URL OF IMAGE"> </Center> Quote Link to comment
