[QUOTE="MJGraf, post: 135585, member: 17886"] Unfortunately I have one of those jobs that doesn't let me do some programming after work anymore... But this would really be a great plugin if someone volunteers. Just as a hint: I read somewhere on a German website that Google Maps has pictures in more detail than it reveals on its maps.google.com site. E.g. if you zoom into Frankfurt the slider stops at this level: [url]http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=de&q=frankfurt&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=19&ll=50.112212,8.684349&spn=0.001159,0.003374&t=k&om=1[/url] (you get this url by clicking on "url to this page" in the upper right corner of maps.google.com) In this url there is a zoom-factor - in this case "z=19". If you change this to another value by hand after copying it into your explorer, you can reach a zoom level of up to 21 for Frankfurt. I can remember that there are places (can't remeber which unfortunately) where you can reach a zoom of up to 24 and thereby seeing the faces of people. Funny but somehow scary, too... cheers, Michael [/QUOTE]
