No fair! My baby face got replaced with some boring guy when they switched over to full body icons instead of just heads.. How does one edit one's icon?

Yeah, sorry bout that... this set just had WAY more options! The pirates and skeletons looked more fun... and the racing driver fit the profile!

You can either look at them (make a "point" but cancel out) and tell me which one you want and I can edit it (3rd row 4th from the right..) or just put another "point" in the map and I'll delete the original. Which ever is easiest for you.

Got it. Since I'm based at an airport I took the pilot (couldn't find the pirate) and place me where I actually am, rather than just somewhere in my zip code. So...please delete the JackMcCornack to the east (by a couple miles) and leave the one on the IV Airport. Thanks! This map is fun.

Done! Now we just have to get the rest of the troop to chime in and then we can use it to plan GTGs and other stuff!!!

I just zoomed in on the map to see how close to my actual location it had placed me. Not bad..about 2 miles off.
