Oh, that's so sweet. I hope you took a screen shot!

I got caught on Google street view last month coming out of a shop. Look a right idiot pulling off my mask mid way, then it goes round the corner and I'm still there gawking away, going "is that a Google car??"

I don't know how to take a screen shot.
My Mother passed away 17 years ago now, but it is a small village so I guess the Google Earth people aren't bothered about updating it.

The photo of my parents' place was taken under a scorching August sun after months of drought when it was illegal to water the lawn. The place looks like a haunted house for all the dead grass and wilting plants.

Needless to say, we dare not mention Google Earth unless as the faintest of whispers in her presence.

What kind of computer do you have, Tiff? I bet one of us can walk you through the steps.

Home PC with Windows 7.

I checked again & it still has the swan planters there.

Re: Go Anywhere

Tiffany. There are two steps:

1. Taking a screenshot using the print screen button on your computer (probably near the upper left of your keyboard).

2. Pasting that image so you can save it.

This is the best video I could find. You might want to watch it a couple of times before trying it.



Good luck!
