brunota, how do you put the Recon-layer above the cloud/satellite layer?

Thread - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=109263

I created a thread for the people that want to do the graphics but don't know how. I hope it helps.

[brunota2003]

[Extratropical94]

My Google Earth just won't do it.
Thank you anyway, both HURAKAN and brunota!

And as soon as I gave up, it started working.

[brunota2003]

Haha okay, you want to run images as well now? I just got my dinner and need to eat.

[Extratropical94]

Bon appetit!

Problem is, i have to go to sleep now...
Here it is 11pm, today was the last day of my fall holidays and tomorrow I have to get up for school!

I'm very sorry BZSTORM, but I can't provide any Google Earth pics from my iPod

I hope for the best for you, your family and your hometown.

Stay safe and good night.

Ok, no problem then, I can keep posting.
