Dealer List

I made a couple of minor updates to the Dealer List. Now the dealer list will display a little "picture" icon next to the dealers that have a photo added to them.

Also when you now view a dealer, a Google map of that location will be displayed beneath it. Please keep in mind that Google generates that maps for me based up the Dealer address (or lack thereof). So if it can't find the actual address, it may simply show the street. If it cant find the street, then it may simply show the center of town. If it cant find the city, then the center of the State, or the center of the country. That is how Google Map works. Also Google map is not 100% when it comes to the actual placement along the street. Some times it dead accurate, other times it may be a few "houses" off. Similar to how you car GPS may tell you that you have arrived at your destination, but it was 1 block off.

When I did the mass import in December I had to rebuild all the database indexes to do the import. In the process some of the old entires got assigned the wrong indexed. So that means the wrong picture and description were getting displayed. I will go back and fix those. This only affected the old entires, not any of the new ones. So no worries going forward.
