Managed to finalise the script/program to build/render images of the UK from a certain online source *cough*.

For example, with just 3-4 clicks of a mouse, you can build this JPG image:-

BEWARE: This is a somewhat large example 6 meg!! Probably best to Right Click and "Save As".

Right Click me and Save As

Phew! It seems to work! You can even see cars on some of the roads

You certainly have my attention and interest!

Here's another one... Nice what a few clicks can produce

Right Click me and Save As (This is about 2.2meg)

I actually recognised the first one- that is Canning Town in London, from the River Lea to Beckton, isn't it?
And the other one is the Medway, I believe. Very interesting.

I had a class in interpreting aerial photographs in college- one useful tip is that a single decker bus is about ten metres long, so you can use them for scale.
