G'day,From memory when using this program, I'm pretty sure its caused when the tiles for some reason can't be downloaded. What source are you using?Cheers,Jack

Hi, you need to play around with the maps.ini file. In the first line it reads:SERVICE=google.com VERSION=&v=54Change this last number up and down a little and see what you get. Google will update its images now and then, so that asking for version 50 images may give you black tiles. Of course also if you ask for a version that doesn't exist.
