  1. As a beginner waymarker, I agree with the question "is it worth it?" I have been very frustrated with the format and access offered via the Waymarking web page. For example, I would like to introduce my first waymark to geocachers who head out to locate a new cache I will soon list. The geocache and the waymark are very close together. My question is ... how do I tell my geocache readers to locate the waymark information? I went to waymark.com and attempted to enter the waymark ID # (WMEAJ2), but could not find a place to do a search by that identifying number. I attempted using the waymark name (First Lady Rose Garden) and got lots of other gardens by the same name all over the world. I know I can qualify the search to bring it closer, but what I want is an easy way for my friends (or anyone, for that matter) to locate a specific waymark. (Truth be told, if it were not too close to certain existing geocache I would have made it into a geocache rather than a waymark.) I don't find Waymarking.com very friendly at all to those seeking to find waymarks. It seems to focus much more on those who define waymarks. Also, unlike geocaches which can be pretty much guaranteed to have a FTF within a day (i.e., a very short time) after its listing, I see many waymarks sitting unvisited. My one waymark has had no visitors in the few weeks of its life. Unlike some readers of this forum, I am not very satisfied with just the activity of researching and writing up a waymark. I want something to come of it.
  2. I saw this and have played with some of the ideas from their input. My primary question is can I (simply?) somehow reference (link to) my web page copy on my server? It is a fairly complete build of the page the way I would like it to appear, including 10 photos. It can be seen at the following link: http://www1.pacific.edu/~rturpin/personal/stuff/geocaching/PacificHistory101/PacificHistory.html If such a link cannot be used I can probably build an html image that will work. Thanks for your imput.
  3. In preparation for a new multi cache I have built a web page on my computer. It is now installed on a server and works well. Is there a way to place a link to this web page in order for it to serve as the cache description? It contains several photos. Or is there a more preferred way to enter the description, photos and all, into the long description? Thanks for your help.
