You could use a static map API: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Static_map_images If you plan on getting any kind of load I would suggest looking at the MapQuest Open one since it doesn't depend on limited OSMF servers. It is also gives you a lot of control over the final product. Toby _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
