Talk:Lyme Bay

Untitled

"Virtle Rock Poker's Pool, Lyme Bay" -- is this a real place? Google search results all seemed to point back to wikipedia. Judielaine (talk) 05:23, 12 August 2010 (UTC) Ah, Google Books turns up some reference in Page 25 of "Dive South Devon" Kendall McDonald, Derek Cockbill. Snippet view. Seems to be a very specialized reference.

Comparing the two maps:

• With the one on the left, the yellow dot needs to be moved up and to the right (to about where the end of the line of the one on the right is) Where it is now, it looks like it is highlighting START BAY, past, or south of, BRIXHAM. That is a different bay (save those coordinates for Start Bay). Can you move the yellow dot? Since this is the "standard" map, I most likely can't win using mine. WikiDon 28 June 2005 06:01 (UTC)

• • I don't dislike the other map, but I decided to change it because this one shows the bay in a physical geographical rather than political geographical context which I think makes more sense for a physical geography page. With the dot, the first number specifies how many pixels from the left, and the second how many pixels from the top, so increasing the first and decreasing the second by one maves it up and right one pixel (see right).

• • • Hey the dot changed size, it got bigger, can you control the dot size?
    • Also, I wish you could click on the map and get an even bigger map, zoom in (bigger than it is now, and retain locator dot. WikiDon 28 June 2005 15:30 (UTC)

• • • • AFAIK, the dot the hasn't changed. Anyway, how's this? It combines the best bits of both maps IMO. Joe D (t) 28 June 2005 15:51 (UTC)

Strange, when I was viewing it at first, it was just a tiny little dot, one pixel, then after I changed the coordinates, it became a star and several times bigger. Good idea about the "GEO", instead of just England. Okay I tweaked your map a little, I'll post in the article. Should we delete all these maps for the TALK page, their are getting a bit thick.
