Hi Marcelo,

Thanks for your great reply,

I like your style!

That second link is pretty much exactly what we're looking for to be
honest, it also includes tags for the images which is also the kind of
thing we were looking at doing. But, I notice this is using Panoramio.
I'm wondering, is that kind of functionality in combination with the
custom tiles going to be a mammoth task? To make things even more
complicated, we'd like the data to be dynamic too as new entries will
be added constantly.

many thanks,

Chris
