Google Map Maker Info Bubble Size
Here is the problem.
I am revamping my companies webpage, I do not have ANY experince coding, doing web design, or really anything outside of the Microsoft Office Suite and Google Apps.
I have a map that I made using Google Map Maker embeded into a webpage. This works fine, the issue is that when you click on the Google Map Maker Marker (which pin-points one of our office locations) the info bubble that opens fills the whole map.
I do not want to change the size of the map, I want the info bubble to open, but I want it to be smaller, or if this is not possible I want it to show a sigle line of text when the curser is moved over the marker so that the rest of the map is still visible and can be scrolled through.
Here is a link to the page.

You may not be able to control the bubble size -- that comes from Google. But here is an alternative suggestion. You can use the Google "static maps" facility to make an appropriately sized map. Let that small static map be a link to another page in your site that shows a larger, clickable Google map. You will get the same bubble functionality on the larger map, and it won't be obtrusive in the larger context.
