5. Right click on the image and select properties.
and then copy the image location. You can post the image location in your message like I did, and then others should be able to click on it.

Makes me wish that I'd been to more places, but I have visited a few that are unusual, like Georgia, when it was part of the USSR, Russia and Finland. I'll also have to do this for my Dad, since there aren't many places he hasn't seen. Thanks, Skinner!:bounce:

Right click on the image. Go to the bottom and click properties and use the addy that's on there.

11. Very cool,
Mine has a few inaccuracies--I had to substitute Fiji for the Cook Islands and there was no option for Antarctica--so just think of the it as maroon too! :)

Edited on Sat Jan-07-06 10:54 PM by AllieB
My older sister has me beaten by a few countries. My husband and I are planning a trip to China in 2007 if we can save up enough money. The Bush economy has really put a damper on our financial situation.

but there wasn't anything for Pitcairn Island, Ascension Island, Cape Verde, Tenerife, Western Samoa, Rarotonga, Guam, Puerto Rico, but those tiny islands wouldn't show up in the large fields of dark blue, anyway.

Edited on Tue Jan-10-06 06:11 AM by tenshi816
until I actually looked at the map. I've got miles to go before I sleep. Anyway, here's mine so far (although the Canary Islands and Antigua weren't on the list):

<img src='http://www.travelblog.org/VC/vc.php?cl=inbfjmmxaubefrgmgreiitlupospswszukcamxus' width=800 height=435 alt='Visited Countries'>

Also, as a matter of principle, I'll be spending the last two weeks of August this year in Aruba.

Edited to tweak the code a little.

24. Okay, here is mine
http://www.travelblog.org/VC/vc.php?cl=inmythfjnzbhcsdrgtmxbefrgmitnlspszukcamxusci

Kind of a fun exercise. Not always sure what criteria for selecting. I did not select Iceland even though I've flown through Reykjavik airport a number of times. I figure it doesn't count if one merely changes planes without leaving airport. In contrast, I did select Germany even though my time there was limited to a train ride from Geneva to Amsterdam. So not really consistent. I selected Dominican Republic in lieu of Puerto Rico and St. Kitts & Nevis which were not available, since its the closest place.

30. I didn't even consider the layovers.
DOH! If I did that, then I would add Sierra Leone, Cote D'Ivoire and Japan to my map.

26. I guess Hong Kong counts as China, right?
Edited on Wed Jan-11-06 01:23 AM by Kire
It was just Hong Kong when I traveled there in 1987. Now it's China, so it looks bigger on the map. Also, you probably couldn't tell by looking, but Jamaica is red on my map.

Thanks for the link, Skinner. I'm forwarding it to my friends and family. Will check back with the results. :yourock:

33. My map...
Note that North Korea is part of the map. I made my "visit" by visiting the DMZ from the South Korean side - and stepping over the border briefly, under supervision.

40. What a fun site. I stumbled here while wandering through
the DU Groups, to see what was available.
Here's mine. I didn't have a few of my typical spots available.
Marshall Islands, Solomon Islands, Puerto Rico, and so on.

43. What a great map!
It's inspiring, so much left to see and do. My wife and I are finally going to go to Asia for the first time in fall so we'll get a little more red there.

Also makes me wonder why I haven't been to Canada?? I really don't know, seems like I should have been there by now!
