I've started yet another system of producing maps of walks with photos. I've made a few in the past, some now broken by changes in the google maps API or dropbox not letting you serve files.

This method uses Leaflet - a JavaScript library for interactive maps and leaflet-gpx rather than google maps. The photos are albums on flickr (brought in with the Flickr API) and the gpx files uploaded to the web.
