Google Street View Static API testing page

This page is for testing static Street View imagery to be used instead of standard embedded Street View. As you will have noticed, some Street View images do not always load and this makes it frustrating for viewers who want to see what a location looks like nowadays. Google seems to have a problem displaying multiple Street Views on one page, so hopefully this will solve the problem for good.

Depending on whether this fixes the problem, a static map image can also be displayed in this manner. The change above to static Street View will speed up webpage loading times greatly; doing the same for the Maps images will further optimise and reduce loading times.
