IMAGE SERIES: SWMI
HOW TO MAKE MAPs: Tiger URLs:
BIG MAP
| MEDIUM MAP
| SMALL MAP
... Each Tiger URL will open into a new target window {target="_blank"}.
... Mapping data is downloaded directly from the US Census Bureau's
"TIGER Map Server" to your browser {target="_blank"}.
... Click once inside the "Location Bar" of browser window {target="_blank"}.
... The "URL" should now be highlighted. If you clicked twice,
and the entire URL is not highlighted, click anywhere else outside the browser
window, and try again.
... When the "Location URL" is highlighted: click edit, click copy
... Paste into {testfile.htm}
... Use {testfile.htm} to review, edit,
and make new maps. It is possible to create a view anywhere
within the United States simply by changing the value for latitude and longitude.
... Check out the U.S. Gazetteer for
more locations.
HOW TO MAKE BUTTONs & ICONs:
Free Software Tool for Images: Irfan View
... save image { trial06.gif }
... open file in Irfan View
... Image -> Effects -> 3D Button
... Image -> Resize/Resample -> Width: 150 -> Preserve aspect ratio
... File -> Save as { button06.gif }
... Image -> Resize/Resample -> Width: 16 -> Preserve aspect ratio
... File -> Save as { favicon.ico }
