I think it’s now a travel bug with a goal of making it back to its original cache location.
Today…Four micros, a nano, a regular, a virtual, and a DNF. We’ll try them all, but like Hemi, we look at the cache pages before going out searching.
The only thing we don’t like is a long and/or difficult hike to find a container that someone has “cleverly” hidden, swag or no swag. If the purpose is to get us to see a particular spot, we don’t need to spoil the pleasure of an area by spending lots of time looking for a micro with a “cute” clue or none at all.
Micros are fun to find, even the ones in the pine trees. Just when we think we know where to look, we find a type of hide new to us. Don’t know what we’ll be like when find a few hundred more or if we go out on big cache runs (which we don’t think we’d like anyway), but right now, we’re still in the learning process and enjoying the game how we play it.
Yay! 😀 😀 😀
You all “done good”!
OK, who’s who and when was the photo taken?
Haven’t done a peach107 cache yet, but we’ve looked at some cache pages that have intrigued us. Guess we have to plan a caching trip to peach area!
Thanks for all your hides, peach107!
Congratulations to nunsontherun and Sloughfoot! Two things off their caching “bucket list”!
Hey, great news on #900, Cachelovskys! Texas is a big state–will you get #1000 before you come back? 😉
Well, I finally got my graphic on to my cache page. I guess I was “saving as” JPG all right, but there was no extension that said JPG, so I just wrote it on and the thing worked!
Uploading went fine, then I had to fiddle around a bit with the html to get it the size I wanted and centered. Then everything after the graphic got centered, so I looked at what I had copied for the WGA notice on the page and applied that to my graphic. No more centering of everything.
I’m learning a lot of new stuff doing cache pages–never had done anything with html before, so I seem to be finding what I want, then “reverse engineering” it to my needs.
It’s great to know that there are so many knowledgeable people in this group who are willing to provide “HTML for Dummies” and other support for those of us who are less skilled. Thanks, everyone! 😀 😀 😀
Have tried both but it still doesn’t work. I can “save as” OK, but the graphic doesn’t show up with the JPEG suffix. That’s probably why it won’t work when I try to upload to the cache page.
I’ll try again when I can get on to geocaching.com.
It won’t accept my log in right now.
What a surprise to see the new look. Hope it’s not like some other sites I visit that have changed their offerings to include more bells and whistles, and now with our dial-up, it takes so long to find what I want that some of those are hardly worth using. (One is an online newspaper–may as well by the thing in it’s 20th century format.)
Congratulations, redrusty!
Congratulations on the Big 1-0-0-0!
Way to go on #1000! Looked like it was a toughy, too.
WOW! 1000! Congrats!
Anyone can find similarities in any design to some other design. The block letters look like Washington’s logo (but I think the Wisconsin one is more compact and has more impact) and the stylized “g” looks like so many other logos that happen to use the small letter “g”, including a new one that Google is using. (Can a stylized “w” and “a” be included to highlight the whole organization, not just the “g”?)
There was even a law suit about 10 years ago between Garth Brooks and Warren G over the same g logo, and then the former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell tried to use a small g, too.
“It’s always something”, so I say: The membership has given advice, the board will discuss the results and give reasons for which logo they choose (that’s why we elected them–to make decisions and take the flak), any necessary tweaking will be done (this isn’t a $$$$ advertising account), and we can all start using the new WGA logo on our cache pages, etc.
Let’s move on.
