The Missions of Baja California

This was a very large undertaking & comments from experienced BBS & GE users are welcome. Please post publicly rather than private e-mail. That way we might all learn. Don't be afraid to speak frankly (but nicely).

Thanks everyone. The past year has been both fun and very enlightening. Now if the White House would just send me those floor plans and quit monitoring my posts, the world would be a great place ...

A lot of good work and information. Bravo!

On my first pass I found myself wondering what purpose the "Overall Map" serves. It seems that when one displays the individual placemarks that the "Overall Map" becomes redundant (thus confusing). You might want to consider not having it checked by default (rather than checked as it is). The reason I like it turned off is so that I can see the context of the Missions within the GE environment.

I also prefer to see the Mission placemarks turned on by default. It makes for an impressive display, and I can zoom in to clear up any clutter and focus on a single Mission.

Just some initial thoughts on what is obviously a yeoman and superior effort here.

Avast ye, matey and shiver me timbers! Scurvy dogs, the lot of ye!

Thanks Jack. I've re-loaded the KML w/ your revisions. You're right. It looks & works better. Have a good weekend.
