Hi folks
I have a spreadsheet and want to display an image derived from google maps.
Wenn using =image("http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?markers=color:red|Karlsruhe&zoom=8&size=280x140&sensor=false",3), I get an error: No image was found at the URL...
The strange thing is: It was working in the beginning...and I found a Shhet from someone who is using this comamnd in the very same way in order to display a map. When I reopened my document and changed locations, I got the error
Here is my document
any ideas?

Same Problem here, did you end up finding a solution?
The image did appear for me before in the Cell then, it started showing that same error.

The url is accessible and I can see the image in a separate window.

Same problem here, anybody ever found a solution that actually works?
