Thanks!

Thanks!
I have not learned this site very well yet, and I am not sure how to provide my placemarker but the coordinates are
48*48'00.94" N 121*40'12.02" W Elevation 4320ft

This is Maiden Lake but there is a picture labeling it as Lake Ann which is a few miles to the north East (48*49'06.90 N 121*39'15.66" W Elevation 5341) Also labeled with picture "Mt. Shuksan from Lake Ann"

I am also curious about how to submit pictures of lakes and further labeling. There are a handful of mountain lakes I visit that I would love to see labeled on GE that there is no info on yet

Thanks again!!

Please see Price Collins' reply. You have to report it to Panoramio.

You too can post your images to Panoramio and map them there. Once you have done, your images will become candidates to be uploaded to GE.

Thanks Price.

Incorrect reporting suggestion [Re: tekgergedan]
      #1216308 - 08/08/08 05:56 AM

The lake itself is correctly named in Google Earth's layer
"Places of Interest > USA Features"

The incorrect name of which the user writes is a Panoramio photo located at
8.801663 N 121.66620 W

If the user click on the photo's icon, there is a link in the bubble which appears called "Misplaced?" That link permits suggestions for a better location.
