Particularly, the article "Creating a Store Locator with PHP, MySQL & Google Maps" goes in details and is very interesting. From this article, we can show item on a map from a database. It is simple then after to create a form on an admin part of a website that would store infos about a business (name, address, photo maybe, others...) in a database and have the google map displaying all the businesses directly. I did that a while ago and I am thinking of adding it on my website at some point. I will let you know then. Hello,

You can pretty much put whatever you want in those things so putting photos in is ok. I did that over on my London site. But it's pretty fiddly. I don't know of anything to make things easy and automatic or anything. You know those popup windows? You can pretty much put whatever you want in those things so putting photos in is ok.
