"I didn't realize that you NEEDED a GPS to place a cache" Well then you obviously didn't read the guidelines that you are required to, and just clicked saying that you did, thereby lying. It is very frustrating when people place caches and the coordinates are WAY off because they didn't verify coordinates.

The author is a local cacher to me, he has a few hides, some good, some should have had a little more thought. Cacher profile is: PND

10th Anniversary events? Do you plan to attend?
ghettomedic replied to avroair's topic in General geocaching topics
10 Years! Events Anyone can host a 10 Years! Event on either May 1 or May 2, 2010. Be sure to check your local event calendar before submitting one, though: it may already be planned. In addition to the standard event cache Guidelines, there are a few additional guidelines that you will need to follow if you wish your event to qualify for a 10 Years! cache type icon. Additional Guidelines: * Events must be held on May 1 or May 2, 2010. * The name of the event needs to be formatted this way: "10 Years! <your location>." For example: 10 Years! Seattle, WA or 10 Jahre! Munich, Germany. * At least 10 people must attend the event. * Flashmobs do not qualify. * A video or picture must be taken at the event. At least 10 attendees must be in the video/photo along with a legible sign showing the event coordinates and location name. * The people in the video or photo should be festive. Be inventive! But please keep it family friendly. If you are interested in hosting a 10 Years! event, you are welcome to submit it as a normal event cache at this time. We will provide details on how to switch the listing to a 10 Years! event soon. -

Why wouldn't you go to an event you are hosting? -
Pocket Query for caches with the Boat required attribute
-
I downloaded the google toolbar for Firefox (not sure if it is available for other browsers.)EDIT= Is available for IE as well. When you open a page in another language it asks if you want it translated (or you push the translate button) works well so far.

If they are listed in a cache you own, click to go to the TB page and on the right you can mark as missing.

Placing caches with Just Google Earth and compass
ghettomedic replied to SF and JB's topic in General geocaching topics
If you want a visual example of Google Earth being off, this is a screen capture of one of my hides. Off by 55 feet+/- -

There used to be one here that was 40+ miles between stages. -

Check out the link above. I use the textmarks all the time, I haven't gotten the DNF part to work but the other stuff does. I have it linked to twitter which then updates my Facebook status

Groundspeak Weekly Newsletter
ghettomedic replied to The Campers's topic in General geocaching topics
I have the same result (windows live) I get the HTML newsletter but it posts twice, one right above the second. Both newsletters appear ok just posted twice in the same e-mail. -
As far as posting the pics. once you have the film developed just get the CD option and you can upload images as a log on the TB home page

Still there for me in IE8, Chrome, Safari and FF

That was how I initially felt about GreaseMonkey, but it is really very useful. It's like a hammer - after you become more proficient in it, every problem looks like a nail. Prime Suspect and Lil Devil both have tons of scripts to enhance different areas of the site. There's another script that will display thumbnails of photos in the log, instead of just the name. And if you didn't notice, I used the script to get rid of some of the widgets on the right column that I don't use. Working on a script is also very therapeutic - that way you don't feel frustration at Groundspeak for not fixing some issue, but instead you get frustrated at why your code doesn't work I agree, I have been playing around with some of the scripts and made some personal changes, like I reduced the State name with the 2 letter abbreviation.

I will post a DNF if I make a decent attempt at a cache. If I just quickly look without much effort I will not. As a cache owner I like seeing DNFs as I like to see people looking as I have a few "clever" hides.
