Inappropriate?I've just been investigating Ning and I have found one work-around so far. You can get Ning to display the flash version of the map if you lie to the interface and tell it that the map is a Youtube video. Youtube uses flash to play its videos, so a lot of times flash maps will work where Youtube videos are allowed.
It seems like Ning is in some way discouraging people from using apps that are outside of their application library. You might write to them and tell them how much you would like to be able to put your Platial map on Ning.
Important:
When you get your flash map code, change the width tags (there are two to find) from 100% to width="400" (or 500, 600 or whatever you want.) Otherwise it comes out all scrawny. You can see my test here: http://funparade.ning.com/video/400-w....
I'll keep poking around and if I find more places where you can get your map in, I will let you know. -
Inappropriate?The flash map also works on "My Page" inside a blog post.

If you go to the manage tab, under features, you can put the blog on your network's main page so the map appears there. http://funparade.ning.com/
Of course if you are really using the blog feature you don't want to tie it up for displaying a map. But if you aren't... this could be a work-around.
I'm looking for some kind of flash display app in their library now.
I’m enjoying the works arounds
