Hi everybody,

we have someting NEW in our forum!

A "FORUM RIDERS MAP"!!! Click onto "Fahrerkarte" on top to see it ...
The whole world is on the map. So, ALL OF US can show where we live.
The map CAN ONLY BE SEEN by MEMBERS of the forum and when you are LOGGED IN (because of savety reasons)!!!

How to add your own location:
1. Click "Einstellungen" on top.
2. Click "Profil bearbeiten & Passwort ändern"
3. Scroll down. At the bottom are "Längengrad" and "Breitengrad" now.

If you want to find your position, click the link "Breiten/Längengrad bestimmen" at the bottom.
This will bring you to multimap.com. Chose your location and below the map is the position.
You have to change the first and the second data when you fill out the boxes!

Example: Multimap shows: -40.0000 / 150.0000
> fill in
Längengrad: 150.0000
Breitengrad: -40.0000

Here are the data for some places:

Wellington NZ
174.7812 / -41.2393

Tokio JP
139.6542 / 35.6935

Shizuoka JP
138.3915 / 34.9763

Singapore
103.7554 / 1.3564

Gateshead GB
-1.5977 / 54.9493

You CAN be very precise and change the numbers till it fits 100%.
But you CAN also be a bit unprecise, so that no one knows where exactly you live.
It's up to you!

4. After you finished, click "Speichern" (=Save).

You can edit the numbers afterwards till it fits!

You don't find your place or have problems???
I can only edit / correct your address if you have filled out the numbers!
So, fill in a number between 1 and 180 in each box and click "Speichern" (=Save).
Then, send me an email and tell me where your location shall be. I will edit your address then.

Is there a feature that shows a list of members names with a link to the country?

I'm sure there must be a quicker way but as you know I read german as well as I knit!

Thanks

Hi Claire,

Such lists of members have been on http://www.bj250.de "Global" and "Europe" sites for long!

Germany has a map on the German sites and a list on the Forum sites.
Nickname, real name, city/districts and which motorcycle. Also links to the riders photo site ...

Thanks Andreas

I did realise that. What I meant was is there one that sits along side the new map feature.

Thanks

Kiwis can fly!

the new map is an add-on by the forum provider "homepagemodules".
We have a "support forum" where administrators can make suggestions, but we have to take it as it is.

I think more than 90% of the forums of "homepagemodules" have only German members.

By the way; the map is still a "beta version" (test version). Don't know what they will add or change by now.

When you use the link http://www.bj250.de/forum , you have "BJ250 Mitglieder" under "Forum" in the left frame.
Click there. Hope you still have the keyword for the http://www.bj250.de website because it's protected!

There are 5 lists:
"German Estrella forum members"
"German Non-Estrella forum members"
"International Estrella forum members"
"International Non-Estrella forum members"
"Visitors"

YOUR ARE ON THE MAP!

Only the wrong place.
I sat you to Tokio first.

Send me a short E-Mail (or post here) where you live (next big city).
I will edit the right position for you then.

HEY, LOOK AT THE MAP!

We can call us: "The forum on which the sun never sets"!

An expression, used for the British Empire. A remark by Princeton professor Duncan Spaeth: "I know why the sun never sets on the British Empire: God wouldn't trust an Englishman in the dark."

Hello Andreas.

I attempted to subscribe the place of me to the map hard.
It thinks that it was possible to subscribe well.
A lot of persons were subscribed to the map and were plainly suprised.

Masayuki

Estrellitan is at the right place now!

He lives only 50km / 30 miles from Masayuki!!!
Please tell me if you want to exchange your e-mail addresses!
I sell sent your address to the other then!

An Estrella-Forum riders meeting in Japan with a small tour would be great!
Make pictures if it happens some day!
