Usage
Example
The wikicode below will create the image at right:

A Note about the Locator Dot
I originally built this template thinking I could use an SVG file with transparency (mostly for the dot in locator maps). However, it seems Internet Explorer users can't handle transparent PNGs without a fix that Wikimedia's not yet delivering, so for now I recommend using the GIF version in the example above. When IE better supports PNGs, we can swap the better format back in. —Papayoung ☯ 02:06, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
