Ha Ha , this is better than google maps, outside our house is my car and my husbands old car which he wrote off about a year ago, then when you look at his flat in england (he works away) his new car is parked there. weird as he never had both cars at the same time!!

I've been using this for about a year. It appears to get its photographic data from the same place.

Personally I'd take a screenshot and cut out the maps and upload it to Flickr (or wherever) and display it as a normal image.

There will probably be a more elegant way of doing it but I am just a simple country bumpkin.
