You should use openwebstudiio to create your own Google Map so you have full control over it.

If you let me know what you need the map to do I can whip up a quick example for you.

I'd love to see a live example of what OWS can do - at the very least it has to do this - http://www.pokerdiy.com/find-by-map.aspx

Most of the work here are my SQL statements which just get the data from my Smart-Thinker mods, Ventrian PA etc. and populate it into the core map format so it can be geocoded. I use scheduled sps (Host Commander) to update it periodically with new items.

What I WANT to do tho is start using the search feature like in this demo: http://www.snowcovered.com/Snowcovered2/Default.aspx?tabid=242&PackageID=15452  (top image)

So it automatically defaults to the user's location and shows all poker games near him. He can get directions to them and seach on location. I believe this is quite simple with a Google Map, but no one is working on the core one. It needs to be templatable so that I can change icons. zoom levels, detail templates etc.

Would that be possible with OWS?
