    Tutorial on creating overlays in GoogleEarth

    Hi Guys and Gals,

    I was asked if I could write up a tutorial on how to create overlays on Google Earth? Overlays are used to place old maps, drawings or old photo's over an area on a Google Earth screen.
    I have found this to be very useful for studying up on an area of treasure searching. I hope and pray that you will also find this useful.

    THANKS PETER!

    I knew this was possible but I didn't know where to start.
    You have saved me a lot of time and aggravation.
    This opens up a whole new world for me to research.
