      so I know there are various articles or webpages or GC bookmark lists that try to show various geo arts that are in existence.

      well being bored and having had the idea for a while I started creating a fun interactive useful site to share and show various Geo arts, where they are located, and series information. Plus I was wanting something fun to do.

      so have a sneak peak after a night and a half of working on this idea and how it’s shaping out.

      Open to suggestions and ideas. I still have plenty in my head with a plan but come on, I’ve only been doing this a little over a night, so it won’t be fully featured yet haha.

      but check the beginnings out: http://geoartdb.cjstolte.com

      Cool! Thanks for doing this.  I’ve wondered if there was something like this out there.

      Looks like a great site so far.  I’ll put in a request for the 50 State Star and the WGA Geo Art.

      The buck stops here. . .and gets entered into Where's George.

      Where's George? Stimulating the economy one EMS'ed dollar at a time.

        Yea I plan to get those add and many more(referencing the many separate lists i’ve found that all have different listings, some the same though). Just needed to get a couple to test things out.

        So far my ideas are….

        • More info/details page that have a larger picture, cache types in series, number of caches in series, gc bookmark list, and other detailed information.
        • Submission page for users to report new/missing geo-arts
        • Ability to report inaccurate data to help me keep things up to date
        • keep track of archived geo-arts (later, i have a list of some)
        • Search abilities to narrow down selections, say interested in ones with traditionals with over a 100 caches in series
        • List of all the 50 state star series
        • add ability for people to add comments on a particular series
        • page with tips and information on either finding but thinking more toward making/hiding a geoart
        • any other potential suggestions by you guys you might like it see/do????????? Or maybe you don’t see the need for this, I’m open to hearing that too

        Way to go Mt.CLMBER 🙂 Awesome ideas to keep geocaching on top!

        I’d Rather Be Lost Geocaching, Than Found At Home!

          Wow I knew I had this idea on the back burner for a while, thought may just over a year. Didn’t realize it was over 2 years of sitting on the back burner 🙁

          Well it is back up front and seeing new life. Decided to start over though and take the opportunity to play around and learn some new technologies while I’m at it. Plus I’m liking how this one is turning out. Figured I’d drop a teaser for V2 to the WGA community. Open for feedback and suggestions. But this time, I promise I’ll get it done. I plan to bring the front map to V2 just haven’t done that yet.

          V1 Homepage: V1Home

          V1 Submission: V1Submit

          V2 Geoart List: V2ListofGeoarts

          V2 Geoart Detail: V2Detail
