The picture has to be on the internet somewhere, and then you put the link to it inside the IMG tags.
There's various places that'll host images, but I don't know which ones are better than others as I usually just use my own server!

Yep, but you can't do it within the forum software.

Our street in Gladstone wasnt visited. Yet my workplace at Bluff was.

I cant see what all the fuss is about, re invasion of privacy, ect. Its nothing you cant already do by driving down Any St Suburbia, and taking photos with a camera, and posting them on the net. All they have done is done a heap of it, and posted it on the net.

Not a geo-picture , but saw this one on Neatorama today (apologies if it has been posted before)
A housefire in Sherwood, Arkansas captured by the Google-Mobile.

The actual pic on streetview has the fire trucks and other views around the corner.

A couple of blocks down, it looks like someone wasn't happy when the google car ran over one of the fire hoses http://tinyurl.com/555o3s

Interestingly this picture has been removed from Street View but you can still see the fire from other views down the street a bit.
