lmmolitor 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2011 Using the Feature Template for my PlatformPro homepage www.greenbankdevelopment.com, I'm trying to accomplish having a medium size map image with frame around it, similar to what's shown on this site under the "feature" area on the home page http://www.simmonshomes.com/ I cannot figure out the best way to configure the Feature Template page to accomplish this. Would i use a box, soapbox or another type of section. Any help appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bryan-hadaway 3 Report post Posted February 9, 2011 They're not using PlatformPro. 2 things come to mind, either they are using a theme that was preset like that or what has been added there very custom by a professional web designer. Looking at your site it appears you've manage to place your map very cleanly and effectively, looks good. What more were you looking to do?

lmmolitor 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2011 Hey Bryan - I'm ok with where the map is placed but am trying to figure out a couple different things: 1) how to add some sort of visual definition / frame around the map/banner area to give it some visual separation from the feature area &/or add a frame around the feature area to give it visual separation from the banner area 2) how to add custom icons to the map and make it stay in the original zoomed location showing all my icons that i created in the customized google mymaps tool thx -liz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bryan-hadaway 3 Report post Posted February 10, 2011 1. Try something like this: ` #banners .banner-area { border: 4px double #CCCCCC; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 30px 0; } ` 2. I wouldn't know. Don't use Google maps personally. Probably be a good idea to post this over at the Google Maps Help Forum: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/maps?hl=en Thanks, Bryan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
