color=#0000ff size=2>Zoomin and TUMONZ are also showing a few farm tracks (but
displayed as thin dark lines so obviously tracks) that are on private property.
Some even give the impression that you can get from one road to another,
but you would have to climb electric fences and dodge bulls to do
so. I wonder what the point of showing them is?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left>Do you like the interface on the TUMONZ Live mapplet (<A
class=moz-txt-link-abbreviated
href="http://www.tumonz.co.nz/mapplet.php">www.tumonz.co.nz/mapplet.php</A>)? We
are overhauling the whole TUMONZ interface for version 3 and using the mapplet
navigation style. One thing we have realised as TUMONZ 2 has grown - it has
become difficult to use cause we just added stuff to it all the time. We are
spending a lot of time on getting the GUI right this time so if you want to be
part of the beta program, any feedback you can provide will be
welcome.</DIV></BODY></HTML>
