Topic: A Picture is worth...
a thousand lines of code, and a whole lot of thanks!
I figure you guys don't get to see too much in the way of what your users do with your hard work, so I wanted to post this as a way to say thanks for the asset, and especially thanks for the support here in the forums.
These are player generated city icons as NGUI layered sprite markers overlaying a google map that had their positions validated as valid by the "detect water by texture" example.
Not counting "I don't know what the hell I'm doing!" time, the map portions took about 6 hours total. When I did this in a browser via javascript, it took me at least 3 days worth of coding to get something not nearly as nice.
