I have created a Network Link for use in Google Earth that dynamically displays the 10 closest images from GEOSnapper.com. You can download the kmz file with the network link here:
GEOSnapper.com Images KMZ
Please provide any feedback on the functionality. This network link works very similar to the flikr images network link. This simply increases the number of images available on Google Earth 
Enjoy!

Really Cool!
One thing i've noticed with using as photos as placemarks is that the labels can quickly obscure the picture. (esp. when lots of pictures are close)
What I did with the export from geograph.co.uk, is to have them invisible and then appear when you hover over the picture, which i think works really well.
Compare 15 latest images to the one with labels.(only enable one at a time!)
Just save the resulting kml, to see how it done!
For other Examples see this thread.
I really want to get the View-Based Refresh working (it not for backend reasons), then have will flickr, geosnapper and geograph (for UK & Ireland) all available

How do you find the 10 nearest? Is it based on Long. and Lat.?
My pictures do not show up in populated areas. For instance, http://www.geosnapper.com/view.php?id=6936
This one works but there are no photos near it.
This one does not
http://www.geosnapper.com/6933/WTC---World-Trade-Center.html
I set the Long. and Lat. to very near to where I was in the water, and took the Long. and Lat. from Google Earth. Click the .kmz file above.
My photo should show up as one of the 10 closest, but it doesnt.
well if you can get this working - then you fixed this bug.
This is an awesome idea - I am addicted to it from a Geosnapper point of view - but would love to see this work flawlessly.
Thanks for the great tool.

That is great, just what I have been looking for a long time to see my geosnapper pics! Thank you.
If I may make a suggestion, I agree with the other user that using the pics as placemarks obstructs a lot of the view. Could we maybe see the pictures in a biger size when we click on the marker, similar to the national geographic ones?
Thanks!
