Thanks Kay, but I meant "actual" profiles not animations of HOW they work.
BUT, it will be good to see again.

Here are a few websites that might have what you are looking for..
The IRIS program has some great animations that explain much about
subduction zones
http://www.iris.edu/hq/programs/education_and_outreach/animations
In particular, here are a couple animations that show the elastic rebound
effect in a subduction zone.

In addition, the IRIS website puts out some educational information for
significant earthquakes at
http://www.iris.edu/hq/retm
Hope these help.

Subject: Subduction Zone Profiles
I was wondering if there is an online site that one may look at to see
what the actual profile view of the location of an event? I realize that
such a profile is not universal or homogeneous. I may not be available
because of the high possibility of variation along the interface.
I can see where the plates meet each other and their approx. rate of
interface, but not how the profile of that plate looks.
The 8.8 Chilean event was shown eventually and was interesting to me in
visualizing the occurrence.
