Website Comments by FLASHPRO
I spent the last few days optimizing the new site to show maps of the world and US with the places you have reviewed beer from. Below is a link that you can try to see your own locations. All you need to do is replace the 1 at the end of the link with your own user ID number. http://www.beerpal.com/brain/maps.asp?UID=1 The link uses the new database that is not necessarily up to date, so it may not show every location if you have reviewed a new one recently. The new site will show the maps on your profile page. The maps are generated by a Google Map Chart API. It was a pain to setup because that API uses the ISO 3166-2 country codes, so I had to convert the old BeerPal country list to that.

Tennessee should, of course, be Tennessee Orange. [;)] No biggie; just wanted to try it out.

Spent too much money on beer. NOT! Can one ever spend too much money on beer? Got growlers of Yazoo (at their beautiful taproom), Jackalope (upstart Nashville brewery) and Calfkiller (very cool little brewery out on the boonies.) Got bottles of high gravity stuff not sold on my side of the state. Got some local pints and got to try Sierra Nevada Ruthless Rye at a really neat little place - 12 South Taproom + had a damn good patty melt for early dinner. Life is good.

I'm color blind, so anything other than white is OK.

Although to avoid political references to red states, etc......maybe another colour (Tennessee orange for example) may have been more neutral......

all states still white. updated profile and using my profile id..
The new database isn't live, so your profile change wasn't copied over yet. It works now [8D]

The only problem is if you have a US State in your profile that isn't entered using the standard two letter abbreviation. For example, the map comes up blank if you're from "California" rather than "CA". You can easily fix that by updating your profile.

You can't change the size of it when it's delivered by BeerPal, but for personal use there is no reason why you can't grab the image yourself. BeerPal just builds the link. Below is the link created for my US chart, and if pay attention to the "chs" parameter you will see the dimensions. Right now it is 300x150. Replace those numbers with anything up to 660x440. http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chs=300x150&cht=t&chco=F9F9F9,005500,FFFF00&chld=AKAZCACOCTDCDEFLGAHIIDILINLAMAMDMEMIMOMTNCNENHNJNVNYOHORSCTXUTVAVTWAWIPA&chd=t:1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,90&chtm=usa
