Is it possible to make some kind of interface so we can check where we live just by login into site with account info ?
Like chars in account tab - add it there, this map and location of homestead - ofc this will be visible only for owner of said account.

if JC put a grid over the map he could then give you the co ords for a small fee

That makes it far too easy, if you want to know where you are you should have to explore.

Well said. If you aren't willing to make an effort to understand your surroundings, we have no interest in helping you further :)

thats fine exploring but with no scale and no cardinal grid let alone a north indicator how do you triangulate from any point to tell them south west of the sun dial ?
JCs idea is great but without basic survaying information it is not going to help a lot.
i have a main alt and base and made two extra alts but ***** up the wilderness guide it would be nice to be able to walk them to the base from the map but as you dont know north how do you propose its done

Up on the minimap is north.

just because minimap coordinates use logical (image) coordinates for indexing, doesn't mean that down is north :)
Obviously, up is east as is the way of the dwarves.
