I didn't was because I thought you must have already done it. A lot of people (myself included) who tried to generate that first map without refreshing didn't get any map at all, just a broken link icon which said the image had some kind of error that prevented it from being displayed. One of the Site Beta Testers recommended it the other day. Your case seemed different. The next time I'll recommend it on general principle for anyone with problems. Thanks for the reply.
: I ran a hit map for the 6th or 7th time and it finally turned out right, I logged off then logged back on and everything was back to the original hits, I also did a refresh in that time, so maybe that helped too. I was working on that for a few hours, just to try to get a hit map, but it is worth the time, I still need 2 states to go to get my USA Bingo, I just got West Virginia on Christmas. Thanks for the help
: : : I have been trying to add my hit map to my profile again, I lost it a few weeks ago. I am a Friend of Wheresgeorge, but when I put in my cut off numbers and hit "get map", the colors do not add up to my cutoff numbers, on my hit mape it shows I had 10 hits in Nebraska when I actually have almost 4000, then it showed I have 50 hits in Hawaii when I only have 8. What am I doing wrong to make the colors not match up? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Kat

: : Since these pages are new this week I don't think people know much about it. The map I see in your profile does not quit match the description in you r post. Hawaii shows greater that 100. Nebraska shows as between 30 and 50. I assume that is because you have generated the map more than once with some different cutoff values.
: : One of the things that I noticed when I played with the page was that when you regenerate a map with different cutoff values, the map in your profile changed but the color legend table does not change. So the colors map look correct on the map generation page but not in the profile. I don't know if your problem is related to this or not.
: : I would suggest that everytime you change the cutoff values, you hit the button that transfer the map and the legend to your profile. This will place a 2nd copy of the map and legend in your profile so you will have to go and delete the old one. But at least the map and legend will be from the same attempt.
: : I wish I could tell you more but it is just too new. Maybe someone with more experience with the page will come along with the answer. If you figure it out please let us know for the next person that has the problem.
