I just want to post out that Focus is one of the leading weekly news magazines in Germany and not some minor publication.

And for Bayer62 and Kusie: those are unnecessarily rude comments, especially considering those are also you first posts in this forum!

Hmmm, as i said this was not ment to disrespect anyone or anyones work, if i offended someone please take my excuses, but i really had to express my feelings after seeing the picture BECAUSE of the fact that Focus is one of the leading magazines in Germany. It that is the style he wants to present himself to the world - OK.

Btw. i just wanted to edit my comment but i do not see the usival vbulletin EDIT button underneath my post - are users not allowed to edit them?

You've got 15 minutes after submitting, then the button disappears.

Thx for ur private opinion dear Stadsman,
first or million comment doesn't care. I was ask to meet the photographer and denied for private reasons, that's all and the rest is your interpretation. But the truth is that the article keeps to be pretty cool, isn't it ?
Cheers Bayer62

Default Focus-article

Google Earth is very popular in Germany, not just a few days.

Even a magazine on the popular german tv-channel "pro-sieben"
reported about google-earth about 3 weeks ago.

And to me, Stefan seems not like a nerd, he does a very good job
at google-earth, a nerd couldn`t do so.

P.S.
Servus!
