    How do ya get the URL of the google earth images?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,103 ✭✭✭North_West_Art


    one for the road.. if you pardon the pun

    How do ya get the URL of the google earth images?

    To put up a Google Maps photo on here, I go to Google Maps and go to street view, (you know where you drag the yellow man icon onto the map), then I use a simple image editing program called Irfanview.. there are many such programs available free online. There is a command in the program called 'Capture/screenshot' under Options. When you hit ctrl and F11, it takes a snapshot of whats on your screen, then you can crop it under Edit in Ifranview, and save it as a jpg. then upload it on here.
    It sounds involved but its handy enough

    Ah i was using google earth i can send a link to the photos via e-mail in there, but it shows up the street name so defeats the purpose , i'll try maps now...

    thanks

    which is correct

    Anyone know where this is?

    Oh and just another tip on copying an image from Google Street View. You don't need to have any special software on your PC. Just find the pic you want on Google Street View. Go to Full Screen. Press the PRTSC (Print Screen) button, it will be located near top right of your keyboard. Just open up paint and then paste (or CTRL + V). You can then resize it if you wish and save the image as file type JPG image.
