Exactly how I do it, except I zoom all the way in to get precise position and then 'fix' the zoom level which I want the map displayed at. The Wiki page which (somewhat) describes this is: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Browsing#Linking_to_Maps There is also the 'Static Page' API/project which will auto magically render maps to png/gif/jpeg, with additional overlays place according to parameters in the URL: http://pafciu17.dev.openstreetmap.org/ These can be saved and put into email/documents/etc (or put as a fall-back background image for when the slippy map fails).
