yeah sure,

check out my food miles gadget here.... www.organiclinker.com/food-miles.cfm


the zoom level on the map whrn you choose somewhre at the moment is set - ideally id like to be able to adjust the zoom based on how far away it is....

ie the further away it is the lower the zoom


thanks matey

I think we have done this, as our site sets the zoom level based on area selected. I will try and get hold of Rob today

thanks

They are stock pictures which we bought and then adapted to fit in each section. I think they work well too, makes the site playful as well as like you say personal (ish)
