The TIG Connect to the World Page (http://connect.takingitglobal.org)has an interesting Map on it. It serves as an informative and easily accessible tool to know the geographical situation of a country apart from linking to different country sites.
This wonderful Map has been built in Macromedia Flash probably, there is alittle bit of problem, that the COMMUNITY menu in the menu bar partially hides behind the flash movie, though the menu does not stop working and one can identify the links to the relevant pages if the Status bar of the browser has been activated, it certainly amounts to a minor obstruction which can either be left as it is or rectified. My point is in just informing...
I have a suggestion for this page, One is that when we place the mouse over a certain country, it shows its zone, name and TIG members, but i think it will be great if the viewers can also see the National flags of the country they point at.
If it is not possible, certainly a separate link can be created on that page which contains the National Flags of all the 235 countries and the country names under them, the flag can have the link to the respective country site or to the a page descirbing the Flag.
I think that TIG has now got sufficient members from a considerable number of countries that can be helpful in providing the information about the flag.
What do you think about it?

If you click on the country, it takes you to the country page which shows the flag plus additional information about that country.

Oh yes surely, i am aware about it, i just wanted for an extra page, on which we can see all the flags side by side.
If you understand the idea ststed in my previous post, i can myself contribute for it, i will only require all flag images from all countries, if they are not available, i wont mind going to every site to have the image, i just wanted your opinion if you think it can be helpful in improving the content of TIG, it wont do much but certainly a little bit...

Yes, I don't think that's directly fixable unless we modify the page.

The problem in the understanding section of the site should be easier to fix.
