Nope.. this is done automatically from the data in your Forums Database.
I was actually thinking about using the google/yahoo api.. but it wasnt realistic adding potentially hundreds of thousands of custom markers on a map system like those would be horrible resource wise.. not to mention the bandwidth needed to do it on each page load..
Thus this system build the image and saves it.. ie. no overhead.
