Sounds like the same interface that Virginia uses for their VBMP orthoimagery. Just so others know, if the projection offered by the ArcGIS server isn't OSM-style (EPSG:3857, EPSG:900913, etc), and the Export Map functionality isn't backed by raw imagery (i.e. it's just tiled at the given projection, such as one of the state plane systems), then it's likely Ian's method won't work. Unfortunately this is the case with Virginia's server.The tiles are working for the imagery in question here. I don't think we ever figured out what was going on with the Virginia imagery that the export functionality wasn't working.
