NHL MAP!!

Post by purpledown »

NHL Map. The map consists of 30 teams in the NHL with each continent being a separate division, like the Northwest, Pacific, Central, etc. and if you capture all teams in the Western or Eastern Conferences, you get a small extra bonus. Lines will connect the different NHL cities, so Colorado can attack Calgary or whatever.

2 problems.

1. copyright
2. map layout. the natural way to do it is some sort of symmetrical thing. and symmetrical maps suck.

purpledown...it would really help your poll if you put a layout up first....even some kind of draft of your idea drawn on paper.

imageshack.us is a good site, it will accept almost anything.

After that use the text in the direct link box towards the bottom and copy paste that into here. Preferably between the tags.

This would be a whole lot better if it was a sport people actually cared about.

cause you need the direct link not the link of the page where an image is on and more

this link you need:

hwo to see if it is the picture link
picture links have always .img/.png/.jpg/.gif etc.
also picture links don't have things in the links like:
php? (always look out for questions marks in links mostly they are not image links)
