Here is my best attempt to help out...

1. Go to
https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=20 ... 2913#bmb=1
and click on the Sign In button.

2. Sign into your, or create a, Google account.

3. Once you are signed in this Red EDIT button let you get started.

4. Three new icons appear... The hand lets you get the map zoomed into your exact location. Once you are ready to mark your location, click the Balloon button.

5. The Balloon appears with an X below it. It is now connected to your mouse. Drag it to your location and click the mouse to plant it.

6. Fill in your information and click OK.

You can go back and edit any of the information by repeating steps 1,2,3.

It's not? It's certainly available in CZ, (including pictures, maps of all Germany).

I can't believe how difficult it was to drop a pin on the map. Without the instructions including the attachment I was doomed to failure. First go around I tried to use the IPad..no luck with that baby, finally resorted to a laptop.

Great instructions. Thanks. Don't try this on a tablet of any kind, though.

I thought this was worth bumping up to the top of the list.

You do not need to be precise about your location if you don't want to.

This is a cool map. Turns out there is a collector right near me but I don't think he is on this forum...must be who beat me to that $50 Credenza a few months back :(
