We must note that when it gets to complex buildings like this one, the software slows down quite a bit when you drag the vertices around.

Overall, it’s not perfect, but it works surprisingly well…!

As far as I can see, they are quite strict in terms of what goes into GEarth. I've had already 1 building refused because of incomplete texturing, so it shows that Google is keeping a close eye on what goes into their software. You can see the acceptance criteria here: http://sketchup.google.com/intl/en/3dwh/acceptance_criteria.html Hi Ryan,

Otherways, its very easy to make replica or great monuments. Well, the layers have added Google earth functionality to a great extent. The other day, i saw <a>Google Earth Games</a> , now wonder what else is left with google earth. I will only appreciate the building maker tool , if some stupic guys dont spam gearth.
