There may be an easier way but I haven't found it yet!1. When you get the view you want, press the Print Screen button on your PC.2. Launch Windows Paint and paste the image.3. Use the Select tool to crop the image, then copy and paste it into a new Paint file, and save it as a JPEG file. Then you can attach to a post on SL in the normal way.If this doesn't work for you, send me a PM (I think you have my email address) so that we don't hijack this thread! Thanks for that!

Whilst having a virtual scoot around town, I think I've stumbled across a a clue to the exact date the Leeds pictures were done (or at least some of them)http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&ie= ... ,,0,5Shows the buses from the Leeds Festival dropping off on Swinegate and the tired festival goers wending their way towards the railway station. That means those pics were taken on Bank Holiday Monday in August (presumably) last year.It's also interesting to note that these 'Google Streetview' images appear to have been taken from cameras mounted on top of Vauxhall Astras - thats what you see whenever there is a reflection of a camera car anyway. However, the camera vehicle I spotted on York Road last year was an American 'mini-van', possibly a GMC, with a different type of camera assembly on top and with amber warning lights flashing....
