I'm at work now but I'll do the rest when I get home tonight, Jamilz28 is your house north south east west? I can get a better pic if you give me more direction on where it is.

For fun crosshairs are on my house, from 35000m... I can always figure out where my house is cause of that odd shaped lake north of my house, I never realized it was so big and shaped like that, every single house in the subdivision is on the lake, it's pretty cool how they did that. Also, this program would make an AWESOME GPS navigational tool if they could integrate it correctly.



Everyone's images are at http://www.meissenation.com/pictures/satellite/

In order:

Lapeer MI
San Antonio TX
Mocksville NC

Shenandoah PA would not load no matter how many times I restarted the program -- for some reason I could get digital images (the black and white) for literally all around the city but a huge block that included Shenandoah wouldn't come in at all, I tried other layers and it wouldn't work still.

Here's the other three though.

So I was going to try to download that program or whatever and I stumbled across some other NASA thing where its basically just photographs of certain geographical coordinates.... Much nicer to look at then those hideous maps...
