    This may be off-topic (or just sidelong), but I really like that Google map when zoomed out. When I zoom in for the "actual size" the random over blurred/ over sharpened look caused by the photographic process are not pleasing to the eye. But at the zoom out size the colors and complex details fill the frame to suggest a giant, teeming city. THis is close to what I've always wanted to do in my city maps; I will definitely use this in my next Photoshop city project!

    Anyway, sorry if this threadjacked!

    Another similarly evocative location I found in Google Earth is Harar, Ethopia.

    Looking forward to seeing more of this TM...very cool idea...

    I started a map of Ur a long time ago in CC2/CD2 when I was using the Sumerian mythology for a campaign...I miss those days...

    Here's the original site of Ur...you can see the temple/ziggurat of Nanna still there...I would love to visit because I'm a HUGE fan of Sumerian mythology.
