I'd like to use the motion sequence from space to my address off of google earth as the flash intro to my new site, but I cant figure out how. Any ideas?

it's always good to get the whole picture - thanks for the reminder about following the rules.

Register it, or download the crack. Oops... i don't think we're allowed to post things like <A HREF="http://30im.com/Google earth Pro/index.htm">crackz</A>; it's against the rules.

I have the google earth program, I just need to figure out how to save the motion sequence to my cpu so I can add it to my website?

I think what Neo meant by "register", is to download & register (buy) a copy of Google Earth Pro. Google offers an optional Movie Making Module, which is an additional price above the cost of Google Earth Pro.

For your use, it may not be worth the purchase price, since you would only use it once. However, you can see if the design company who does your website would purchase the Pro version with the module. It might be a good idea for them since they could use it (not just the movie module, but other features as well) for several of their clients.

If that option is not do-able: It is actually quite easy to simulate the motion sequence in Flash. All you need is a series of images (at various altitudes), then combine those with a zoom effect of each image, then string each zoom animation of each image in order to make it appear as once continuous sequence. Anyone who is competent with Flash should be able to do this within a couple of hours.

Although there is no technical reason why this can't be done, it may not be legal - check the End User License Agreement (under Help, License).

Or you can try something like this to capture a movie without buying the pro version.
