[Qgis-user] forward transform error

[Byron Como]

I'm really confused.

I load a layer from my postgresql database and the layers extents shown 
in the lower rh window correspond to my project's location. 44.4, 33.3. 
The layer's crs is set to google mercator.
Then I load an old shapefile from the same project area with the google 
mercator crs and it loads way the heck somewhere else and ITS 
coordinates are all weird and unrecognizable.
When I load a google layer does it load up properly where I think its 
suppsed to go, where my corrdinates look correct? Does it? noooooo.
I zoom into the shapefile layer with the unrecognizable coorddinates and 
i can load a google layer there. Thing is, the shapefile is junk - 
there's nothing there I need. I've got 30 mb of data at the OTHER location.
Crap.
