Where did you find the google maps api documentation, please? #16

I'm trying to make a google map of images from another project and this project is the closest I've found. Please point me in the right direction!

Thank you!

I didn't make the Google Maps part of this mod. That was done by the original creator. I'm just the guy that took it over since then. I'm actually planning on switching to leaflet because of the exact reason you created this issue. The Google documentation sucks. Trying to find what you want is in the docs is nearly impossible and that is assuming you manage to even find the right docs in the first place.

So if you haven't invested too much effort yet leaflet looks to be so much easier and nicer to work with than Google Maps. Plus no one needs a API key to host it on a web server which is a big plus!

I found the documentation for both. Feels about the same to me. Either way I have to do some crazy ass conversion between (lat,lng) and (x,y)
