Hello Anthony, I successfully added the Imagery plugin and it seems to work (I can see Imagery item on the main menu) But, I may be missing a step here... I could not see the Bing Sat option from the Imagery menu items on the main menu. All I can see are the Landsat / Landsat (mirror) / Yahoo Sat / Rectified Image / Blank Layer. How to I "add" Bing to the options?
