[/quote]Great idea. How would you do it? Copy and paste?

Debbie[/quote]


Debbie:
I set up a folder (desktop is a good place) for S2K Members and then from Nate's website right click on each individual picture and select "save picture as". Find your folder and enter the name on the line and save. Much easier than copy and paste. Once you do the first one, your folder should come up automatically. You can rename for more info or keep the name that MTM assigned.

Good luck,
Lynn :)

Where am I when the storms come and go? If they're heading here, my butt's in Ft. Worth. :lol: :wink:

However, I'm in Galveston, TX.

Heh... I looked all the way down the first page for the thread this morning only to discover that it was stickyed. :D

Thanks for the appreciative words, everyone. As far as the maps, I'll probably update them again either tomorrow or Saturday.

I plan to make a folder in my photo album and d/l all of the maps so that when storms are heading toward any area I'll know who might be in harm's way.

I wish I could figure out how to import into GE but my backup plan will have to work!!

Thanks, again.
Lynn


When the thread dies down a bit, I'll upload what I have into one of those .kmz files to where people with GE can import it and have the same thing I have.

I put your coordinates at 30.4 N, 87.0 W. That's a little closer to Pensacola Beach.
