Can Google Street View save me the trip?

How do you copy the photos. When I right click, it doesn't give me the option to copy or save?

I hope you guys don't take me serious here, and start using this on your reports, my OP was for the sake of discussion or perhaps to lobby for the modification of existing certifications and to address the use of new technology, to counter the Zaio idea and the like....

Anyway to capture a photo on your screen you should utilize a screen capture program, you can find some free on www.filehippo.com or use the print screen button on your keyboard to capture the whole screen, open MS paint and click paste, then crop out the section you don't want....

I have utilized a street photo from StreetView only once in the past, when I forgot to take a street view photo, but in that case the street and the subject were physically inspected....

For the nominal fee of $50 I'll be happy to share with you how to get photos off of Google streetview. PM me now to find out how!

If you go green, your name will be on a black list. I don't live in NY, and the only 2055's ive done (haven't done any in well over a year) have been houses. But its an exterior only inspection. You certify that you personally inspected at least the exterior. Seems to me the sow means you have to go there. You don't know if its changed since then. Now if your camera breaks, and you cant get your photo off of it, and you have to use something like that....?

Click on file at the left hand, top corner of your google screen; like any where else you will find the word, "file". Second line down, after clicking on file, you will see the word, "save". Move your cursor to the word save, and an arrow will automatically drop down some options for you. Click on, save image; JPEG is what I recommend. Choose your destination

As with any pics you're grabbing, you should see what the default size of a typical picture you take is (right click, properties), then with any photo editor (MS Paint, etc.) resize the photo you clipped to that same size. If you don't you may get a much less than professional report with different sized photos.
