EVS-Islands: Greasemonkey, Script and Tags

The above map shows some of my completed island mapping projects. Each icon contains the name of the primary island associated with the project and a link to the post. Once all of my projects are posted, the map will be covered with icons. To productively use the map, zoom into a region of interest. Then select an icon.

Each of my maps is constructed of numerous layers of information. All of the layers are vector files. I will make these files available upon request. You are free to use them with certain restrictions - 1) Don't sell them. You can use them on research projects, post them to your website or things of that nature. If you aren't sure about the use of my maps, drop me a line and we can discuss your idea. 2) Give me credit when you use my vectors or images of my maps. Credit them to Peter Minton @ EVS-Islands

If I have the island vector file(s) and based upon your need, I will make them available. Images of my maps are yours to download and use, with the above restrictions applicable. Enjoy!

Greasemonkey, Script and Tags

This doesn't have much to do with maps, but it is nice to know. I use tags on my uploaded images in Flickr and in Technorati. However, I had not used them in my blog site. That is up until now. This site, A Consuming Experience, has a wonderful article on adding tags to your Blogger posts. Since I use Firefox 1.5 the download of a program called Greasemonkey and the addition of a script created this neat little box at the bottom of my posts that lets me add all of the tags I need once I have completed an entry. Read the article and install the "Append Tags" box and you can begin tagging your blog posts. OT: Special Topic
