Welcome to the new Pathtags forum

Posted: Thu Sep 30, 2010 10:08 pm

At the request of a number of interested members, we have added the Pathtags forums. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's tags both old and new.

If you have a question about getting pathtags made, or need help with designing your tag, or any other comments or quesitons about pathtags, this is the place to be.

I'll start things out. This is the tag I had made about a year ago. My "starter set" only lasted a couple of months. I haven't re-ordered yet, but will be soon.

Enjoy the new forum!

Yeah! A new forum and about something I've been pondering adding to our geocaching items. Encountered our first pathtag in July while out with the Weasel from Iowa who educated me on them. Now starting to see them more and more I think they are going to take over other trackables possibly.

Ours is our avatar. Got started after finding some in caches. We like to trade and always happy to trade for ones we don't have.

If you don't mind me asking what was the cost to have it designed?

Not afraid to say it was $25.00 - well worth it I think! I used one of the Pathtag partners on the Pathtag website. I think that is the normal "fee" for designing.

I checked out a few of the designers and thought it was well worth them doing it than me spending way too much of my time trying to figure it out and make it look good. I pretty much gave them the drawing we have for our avatar and asked for it to be made into a tag design. A few tweaks to it and blueprint was accepted! Now just waiting for the delivery. Very Happy

Ask on the forums here, there are a several with serious artistic talent that I won't name but have all the mad skills to help... a couple with mac's too...ok, thats my PWI dig, but seriously there are several here who I've talked and exchanged emails with that do have the talent regardless of their technology choice.
