Hi Scotty- Here are some examples for you: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/demogallery.html?searchquery=picasa&classname= http://gmaps-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/photolayer/photolayer.html
There are 2 main ways of pulling in Picasa photos - KML (using GGeoXml) or JSON (parsing + creating markers). There are examples of both in those links. Look through those and see what questions you still have. - pamela On Sep 13, 9:32 pm, scotty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hy Everyone... i've been trolling on here on and off for a while now > and just can't wrap my head around this (but it seems it should be > easy enough). > > I own a small bike and outdoor shop in Kirkland, Washington.
