I appreciate your sentiment, but we aren't doing this just for those pieces of functionality. Some floorplans will actually be maps. Some floorplans will be an image hovering over a map. All floorplans will need to make use of markers, etc. We have PLENTY of need for MM features, we just need to evaluate whether we can make this simple first step work.
So, is it the case that MM simply cannot support a single-image, single-tile provider that can zoom in or out once (and just relaying on image scaling instead of loading new tiles)?
I could also roll my own and just tie it into the MM events (somewhat like the multi-map provider examples I've seen on here.) It just seems like this should be possible pretty trivially with a robust tool such as this?

Single Image MapProviderHello ModestMappers!
We are trying to use ModestMaps to implement a floorplan viewer. We would like to reuse the pan and zoom functionality of MM, but our image sizes don't warrant slicing up into tiles. Just scaling them as a zoom is perfect.
At first I was trying them as Overlays (or even markers, maybe), but it seems like I should be able to create my own MapProvider that only ever returns a single image at the middle zoom level and lets the zoom in/out levels scale from that middle level.
This kind of works, but I need help. What should I be doing in terms of Transformations and Projections? How do I specify the boundaries? What should my getTileUrls function look like?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

The "clear:both" styles are still present on your page, Christine, so you failed to actually remove them and save the file for whatever reason.
Are you using the latest version (0.1.5)? And are you sure you overwrote the old file? (also, the css file should be seesmic-wp.css, not seesmic.css, but i bet that's what you meant...)
It looks like they're going to fix this in a later version, at least!

Okay, i figured out how to fix it myself, here's the writeup:
http://lorennorman.com/web-video/sees...
I had to open the Seesmic plugin code and remove all instances of "clear:both;" which were causing the plugin to appear below your sidebars on themes that implement sidebars with floats.
I would love for a developer to comment on this! This plugin is too powerful to let languish, guys.

There's nothing in the HTML, i don't think. It's a problem with a Seesmic embed appearing in the first post on the page.
Look at my site http://lorennorman.com and you'll see that my first post is messed up, but not my second (both contain Seesmic embeds.) Now click on the title of my second post to open that post up. That post will now have this huge space in it as it is the first one on the page now.
I can give you HTML if you like, but i think this demonstrates that it isn't an issue with HTML at all. Potentially it is the CSS of some themes or something? Still working on this...-
