I was just wondering, is there a map of the USA that shows where the members are located?
If not, would be kinda fun to see where all the members were and closest to ones home town. You know, the map could be like the "push pins" or some thing like that. I don't know how difficult it would be to make...
Just an idea, Thanks steve

Huh, whadda ya know. I guess I should check that more often myself. There's two members in Shreveport I didn't know about, just 20 miles or so from me, Vetteguy75 and trial member Robert9393 with a '68 vert. I didn't know there were any members or chromies in Shreveport! Never seen one. 
I know the voices aren't real, but they have some pretty cool ideas... 
[QUOTE=Adams' Apple]Try the Member Stats under the "Members" button at the top of the pages.

Also, try the Members Search under the "Members" button and then use the Zip Code Search listed on the page. You can search for members up to 50 miles from your home.
BTW, Adam (if you read this) can this search be widened to more than 50 miles?

Thanks everyone for advise. I was only able to find one "former" member near me. I used the "search" option and yes I agree with Biff, it should be increased to more than 50 miles. For me it should be more like 100 or even 200 miles?
I still like my map of the USA idea with the "push pins" concept.
But what do I know....
HA HA

I agree with you on the map thing, although there are members in other countries also. It would be nice if the zip search allowed you to pick the distance up to a couple hundred miles.

Adam, Microsoft Map Point allows for the "push pin" idea and will allow a graphical mapping showing member concentrations geographically...
I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

Vette(s): My 1974 Vette sold last August 2014. I am still willing to show up to events and local gatherings if anything happening No new vette yet.
i like the push pins concept too. perhaps, if you made it a bit easier. take the map of the world rather than just the north america continent. have the cursor be able to go over a particular state, country, region, providence etc.. and highlight it, or click it and open it up to a list of IDs and towns so you can contact those people closest to you.

As far as the search option, i would atleast like to see it go to 100 miles away so if there is enough advance notice i can invite people from the near by states to an event rather than people just 50 miles away from me. When i do a search it doesnt even go past central jersey from me so i cant invite anyone from southern jersey etc to an event or BBQ because i am limited a distance.
just an idea. but a good one.

Vette(s): 1980 Red T-Top with 42000 miles. No modifications and will probably stay that way.
When you live in a rural area the 50 mile radius just isn't valid for finding anyone other than searching from other towns/cities. The map idea sure has my vote for "The Best Improvement" for 2008 - if there was such a contest! Insurance goes on next weekend!!! Yippeeee. . . .
