Kellsie me lad . . .A bit of fun!

Could you do an animated World Map showing the "growth" of Vegas over the period you've been running your World Map thingie? Maybe stick in some humourous blips and blats audio .. or whatever . . then stick it up on the VidShare site? Oh this all depends on you being able to take screen grabs going back over the past . .er . .year? Against the week by week take up!

Tell you what, if you wanna send me the screen grabs I'll do something instead - to help out!

Could be fun . ..

Grazie

Grazie! Always the fun one, you are!

It shouldn't be a problem at all. The only sticking point is that i never saved a timestamp for each new pin, although the order of sticking is preserved. So, the progression will be regular and linear rather than representing the actual timing. I suppose i could randomize the cadence a bit if ends up looking too regular.

Will get back to you shortly ...

Yeah the time stamp aint an issue . . we can kinda play with it to give it a cadence of our own - yeah? You like the idea? You might be able to suppliy it to Sony too! ! !! If so jst remember me when you are Rich 'n Famous and appearing on chat shows . . - yeah?

Grazie

Maybe when a point appears it quickl goes form BIG to small so the viewer can see what's happenning .. I think this would look amazing , .. I know Sony would LOVE it to bits! ! ! !

AND it is FUN!


Grazie . . .

Yeah, now yer making work for me! I'm sure it's doable. But, i've gotta go worry about the dog and the dishes and the lawn and the garbage and the bathroom floor tiles first though.

Here's a preliminary (read: dull) version for you anyway. :)
