Enter in VALVe's address, or whoever you want your poor helpless victim to be, and usually you will get good matches for it! You can almost get a full zoom on VALVe's offices, good enough for me, but it's still missing one zoom but who cares :afro:

[Asuka]

Holy crap NEAT STUFF. THX A LOT

 

[PatPwnt]

wtf? Invalid state? BULL SHIT. Florida

 

[Asuka]

Images are really old tho. Just noticed when stuff wasnt coming out right.

 

[Farrowlesparrow]

Heh, I found my house but the picture is four years old. Its quite cool looking at my town then, beause they were only part way through building the canal and there are a few other differences thourhgout the town. Tesco wasn't finished, everywhere didn't have the new pavements (Which look rather nice by the way)

 

[Varg|Hund]

oi! It refuses to zoom streets in sweden! *grumble grumble*

 

[burnzie]

you know, i never noticed all this pink before but now that they mentioned it...

 

[LittleB]

That's f*cking amazing!

How did you guys save the image?

 

[burnzie]

That's f*cking amazing!

How did you guys save the image?

Right click save as is the usual means...

yeah i know its amazing at first but you'll get over it...

 

[el Chi]

This is crap - I can't find my house... It won't even show my bloody borough, as far as I can tell. Pffft - I live in London for God's sake. <Grumbles>

 

[Gunner]

Would be nice to have this sort of thing on a mobile phone.

 

[mortiz]

Won't show my house either, the best I can get is my home town!

 

[ScopeD]

It's crap, when I try to find my belowed country Finland it returns me something that it likes to think as Finland. Land with billion lakes. Even we don't have that much lakes.
I'm really pissed

update

wait, I think I got it. The image is mirrored :naughty:
I think I can now show you my house in no time.

update

No the image wasn't mirrored. well I'll be damned with more rivers and lakes. It's like finding a needle from a pin sack or something.

 

[Direwolf]

Hehe...my neighborhood picture is over 13 years old and black and white at very low resolution. I may be able to see my black blob of a house.

 

[Pressure]

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Oh I found it. At first it showed way up my street and I had to scroll way down.

 

[SubKamran]

Nice! I can see my house!

 

[simmo]

Is there anything like this that can zoom in to UK areas ? ;(

 

[PunisherUSA]

Won't do save image in mozilla. It tries to save the html. Use IE to save the mage.
This is kind of scary when you think about it.
My house!

 

[gh0st]

http://terraserver.microsoft.com/default.aspx is way better than that site. for some people anyway.

Edit: Valve image. The building to the left of the green field

 

[DiSTuRbEd]

Heres mine, but there is a bigger deck, 2 car garage behind that boat, which isn't here anymore and on the right side a new master bed room...

 

[nw909]

Haha, that site is sooo bad for Canada, It seems I live in green and purple squares...

 

[nicrd]

looks like these pictures are old, the world trade center is still standing!

 

[Farrowlesparrow]

Heh, thats quite a scary thought. That happened nearly 3 years ago now....Doesn't time fly. I still remember I was standing in centre of town at a bus stop and some guy just came walking by and he said "A plane has just crashed into the world trade centre." I didn't relaly know what to think, I mean i had seen those buildings a couple of years before and the thought of them falling down didn't strike me as anything aprticually amazing because it didn't sink in. Then I also heard about the pentagon and it was like I was reading a book or seeing a film.
Shame they don't have a picture from the time it happened.

New York's pictures were taken Jul 2, 2001...

damn they should update.

 

[Fender357]

Here's where I live. You a holes have big houses. My living room is about 15 feet wide.......... I mean come on..

The red box is the exact area that my apartment is at. The rest at the bottom is garage, and above is my neighbors.

 

[Sui]

[nw909]
