"The Biblical World" map needs higher res background
The new "Biblical Places" facility is great ... however, the main map "The Biblical World" needs a higher res or vector background as when zoomed in fairly close it's pretty blocky.
Thanks
Richard

We're looking into this, but it covers so much area it may just take too much memory without writing special block-caching code.
The good news is that this is just a background placeholder map; in the final product you'll generally be on a much more detailed topical map when you zoom into a city.0 -

Any chance that Clicking on a city could pop up a map of that city?
e.g. clicking on Jerusalem opens a Jerusalem through the ages map. Click on the temple in that map pop's up a "Temple through the ages map". Click on Solomon's temple and get a floorplan?
Hey, I can dream can't I?
Ps. Major wow on the Google maps link!

We won't have detailed maps of individual cities, except for Jerusalem (we'll have several of that). But clicking on a city gives you the Biblical Places information on it, which includes thumbnails of all the maps on which that place occurs. There's only a handful now, but we hope to have about 60 in the release.
We do have several diagrams of the various temples in the Infographics: for example, here's a link to one of Solomon's Temple (but i can't seem to get it past the wiki software both live and intact):

Thanks Sean,
I'm really appreciating infographics more and more.
