Nifty. Where did you get those little icons? I was looking around for them as well as how to get the type there. Also, is there a way to save the image or did you just take a screenshot? I'll post mine once i figure this out. Yeah I'm a nub

there should be a thumbtack option and you can just save the images

this looks pretty cool, i'm downloading it right now. I've heard a few people talk about this, and they say it's really awsome.

Googles a little behind though....

The areas i 'boxed' are currently flattened and under construction, I'm pretty sure they are just becoming strip malls...]
Personally, I think they should stick a Burger King in the lower box.....the closest one is about 1.5 miles away and is way better than McD's...I HATE McD's

=\ i live in a rural area, RIGHT on the outskirts of the city...so my house is a blure, while a half mile away is crystal clear :@

Cool i saw this at the National Spy Museum in D.C. when my class went there for a trip. The pics were way outdated too.

How about now?
