Thanks a lot, but I think this is not a good idea, because this would
mean every time you click on a panorama, you will have an additional
Placemark!!!! This is very annoying! And you don't have a link back to
the wwp - Page!

I think it is much better to just have a "Look at" link, and provide a
list with all panoramas (as I do), so these links are already in
google earth. If you want, you can use my placemark list as a template
(just unzip the kmz file) at
http://bilder.sinnfrei.at/googleearth/
and provide it on the wwp-server (as i asked 3 month ago)

MfG,
     Thomas.
