This collection is dedicated to finding any types of fires in Google Earth. I've started the collection off, with a few nice ones I found just today on the boards. I'm sure that many of you know where some fires are, and if someone else posted them first, I'd be happy to see a link so I can add them to the collection.
Enjoy!
==========
The collection is broken down like this:
North America
Building Fires
Forest/Grassland Fires
Other
South America
Building Fires
Forest/Grassland Fires
Other
Europe
Building Fires
Forest/Grassland Fires
Other
Africa

Hello AmericanXplorer13 
A nice idea and very well done. I like the picture with the forest fire and the GE screenshots you made. It gives the right ambiance to the post. I tried to make a similiar picture with sundials but it did not take the same effect.
The file contains some very cool placemarks I have never seen before, for example the burning house in Wiesbaden. Thanks.
Here is a burning barn:

Just found one in northern Australia - coordinates are: 13deg 3'59 S / 142deg45' E
Not hi-res, but obviously a BIG fire at 1.5 miles across!

I've added a few new fires...
Current Stats:
My collection just previously had 16 posts in 24 folders. (Funny how that works out!)
I have just added a total of 593 new fires bringing the total count to 609.
All of these new fires are from sasroodkapje's post of African fires.
Thanks everyone for all the support!
