Topic: Import from Google Earth

[FengK]

you were expecting?   however a side effect is that the resultant bi-tonal image can be faded.

Thanks Michael. I was wondering if it can be colored, as in GE.

Kelie, this page give product comparison http://earth.google.com/product_comparison.html. You will see that the imagery data is the same irrespective of product.

When importing an image from GE, it can only be black and white?

there is a bit of a hack to get it in color. Wendy shows how here:

That's just for the free version, no?  What if you shelled out the $400+ for the pro version?  Can you then redistribute it?  I would like to think so, since you're now paying them.

Don't bet on it, check the TOU to be sure.
