Google Maps image?

Question

Is there any way to capture the image of a Google Map? I can\'t use the static map because I have my own polylines in the map and I want them in the \"screenshot\".

Answer 1

Google doesn't provide this functionality with its API. However, there are a few scripts for scraping this information from the page. The following site has a PHP script that does it:
