Panorama Map preview is online

Hi,
we've got the first version of a World Wide Panorama Map
integrated with the wwp904 and online:
http://geoimages.berkeley.edu/wwp904/map/index.html
Still needs some minor polishing, (and there's the stray panorama
marker once in while still in it), but we're on to it.
Any comments welcome. As before, if your panorama is not where
you'd expect it, please tell Landis (i get my GPS data from him).
If some browser/OS combination behaves odd, please tell me (he
gets the HTML code for /map from me ;-)
Things already scheduled to fix over the weekend:
* make world image brighter (looks too dark? Your opinion?)
* maybe make marker dots in detail maps a bit larger?
* fix the stray panorama of Venice that wandered off to visit
Venice Beach ;-) *oops*
* fix a few & signs in names that turned into &
* calculate return links to jump from panorama to detail world tile
* add a little "you are here" rectangle on the tiny world map in
the lower left corner of the detail map
Things that may take some time before they happen:
* create maps for WWP304 and 604 (quite some data not there yet)
* unify the font appearance (may take longer since it'd probably
affect the whole WWP site?)
