Frappr<\/strong> is a new online mapping service which allows readers of Fastpitchwest.com to post a flag showing where they are, add a note (and photo if they wish). Just enter your name and zip and Google Maps does the rest !<\/p>\n

Take a look, or better still, add yourself to our map. (Once at the map, click a flag and the reader’s name, note and photo pop-up) Have a team website? Add the URL to the note (e.g. http:\/\/www.fastpitchwest.com)<\/p>\n

\"Check<\/a>
\nClick here to view and\/or add yourself to our map<\/a> !<\/strong><\/p>\n

We strongly encourage you to post a photo; as you will see, it’s more fun to peruse the flags when photos are attached ! Feel free to use a photo of yourself posted at Fastpitchwest. The Frappr system will automatically resize the photo for you. Note that you can “zoom in” on any flag by using the grid on the left hand side of the page. (Zooming in will show you the city and surrounding area for the zip code entered)
\n
\nUpdate<\/strong>: Thanks to those of you who have take the time to “plant your flag” on the map, and especially those posting photos (most have). If you decide you’d like to add or change your photo, or run into any problems, please email me (jim (at) fastpitchwest.com and I’ll delete you and you can do it again.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Update 2: <\/strong>You may include a website address in your “comments”, but need to include the full http:\/\/www.yourwebsite.com URL to create a hyperlink. <\/p>\n

Update 3: <\/strong>If you have a high resolution (large) photo, Frappr will shrink your thumbnail, but post the photo in full size (which may be too large for online viewing). We recommend nothing larger than 800 x 600 (640 x 480 works fine, or even smaller if you wish). If you don’t know how to reduce that giant photo, email it to me and I will do it for you: jim @ fastpitchwest.com<\/p>\n

Update 4: <\/strong>Great job out there. The map is growing by the day. Note that you can click “photos” link at the top of the map page, and view the photos, 9 to a page. You can click the photo to enlarge them as well. Right now, about 2\/3’s of the members have a photo or logo for their flag. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
