When it comes to visualizing your results on some basemap, I'd warmly recommend switching to QGIS and preparing your map layouts in the QGIS map composer. You have access to all your GRASS maps thru the QGIS GRASS provider, and you can use the QGIS plugin "QuickMapServices" to have access to several online WMS services for a choice of background maps.
Micha, I've not before had need to learn qgis. Yes, it can apparently do a 'better' job of map publishing than can grass, but that's not what I was wanting to do. When I view a project's area on Google-Earth my reading of instructions and GE-associated web pages suggests there are two options for saving the view: as a bit-mapped .jpg (which can be converted to .png) without any associated geographic coordinates or as a point vector of a designated 'place' saved as a .kml file. I wanted to learn if there's a way of saving the GE view as a georeferenced .kml that could be imported into grass and draped over a shaded DEM or used as an underlay with grass vector maps on top. My understanding is there there is no way to do this.
