Hi,

It's the tiles. An easy way to see this is with the Web Developer
toolbar in FF; select Outline > Custom Elements and enter "img", which
will draw lines around all images on the page - including GMaps tiles.

I would think that the root of your problem is that your source map
image is the wrong map projection - I can tell by looking at it that
it's equirectangular, while GMaps uses Mercator. The easiest place to
see this is in the shape of Greenland. In order to use this image with
the GMaps API, you'll need to reproject it, and that will require some
work. I do my reprojections manually in PHP; perhaps someone else on
the group can chime in if they know an easier, non-programming-based
approach.

HTH,

String
