I have been trying to post 3 maps multiple times. I get that it is not a SV map from the admins. I have tested each one and they are fine. The Submit changes something.
Here are the 3 URL's I am Submitting.
Aussie Signs
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=55+Wangara+Road,,+Sandringham,,+Victoria.+3191&sll=32.80257,-117.248948&sspn=0.009974,0.018733&layer=c&ie=UTF8&ll=-37.954451,145.037599&spn=0.009356,0.018733&t=h&z=16&cbll=-37.958711,145.038189&panoid=2aUnpEcH0uBKrlRygblu9g&cbp=1,361.40853887844775,,1,5

I think the problem is in the VGT submission code. It looks like VGT can't handle URLs as long as yours. You can shorten the URL by removing the address. You can do this two ways:
1) manually edit the url and remove the address field so it just has q=& instead of q=55+Wangara+Road,,+Sandringham,,+Victoria.+3191&
2) before you click "link" in GM, clear the address from the GM Search field and click "Search Maps" to recreate the URL without an address.
I'll ask nic if he can increase the length of that field.

As a followup to this thread directly, I have increased the length of the field to 500 chars. Let me know of any other problems.
