Show up to 200 locations on one map

It's been a repeated petition by many of you, users of Tagzania: Please, let us show more than 25 places on a map... Well, first step towards that goal: Maps embedded elsewhere can show now up to 200 markers, each with its own information bubble

You know there's a page where you can get code to paste or embed a given map in your blog or website. This user's page, for instance, and you have the option to get the code here. Now, have a look there, the controls that you can set to give your map a certain look, have a new addition: choose the number of items. The default is as it is today: 25 items. But you can switch to show 100 or 200 points.

This will work with maps based in tags, shared maps as the general Tokyo map, for instance. Or a tag for just one user, also with tag combinations. Maps pasted until now, they will show 25 items maximum as until now. But if you get the new code, you can show more...

Showing 200 points won't represent any load on our servers, but it may slow some browsers, particularly Internet Explorer. Some old browsers may get blocked or semi-blocked when several maps showing 200 points each are seen one after another...

You can check it by yourself. See maps were 100 or 200 hotels are shown in this example pages; this one shows 100 hotels, and this 200. See screenshot to see how you should see that one:
