  1. I have a puzzle cache I want place and I need to upload an image and preserve the size so it can be printed out the same size. Any ideas on how that can be done on GC.com. GC.com seems to enlarge my image quit a bit when it is uploaded.
  2. Wouldn't it be cool to see your cache's position in the pending approval queue? It necessarily doesn't have to list all the caches in the queue, just your cache's current position. For example, Your New Cache (GCABCD) is 12/18 (twelve of eighteen in the review queue). That way you could be assured that your cache is for sure in the review queue and you could sort of get an idea of the general time frame when it may be reviewed.
  3. Thanks everyone, I got it put together and in for approval.
  4. I think that is the way I want to do it, that way potential seekers will be able to replay the file without having to reload the cache page.
  5. Give me the quick and dirty on how to do that?
  6. Does anyone know how I can put a sound file on a cache page? I have a .wav file (less than 500 KB) as part of a puzzle cache that I want to put on a page. Thanks in advance for you help and sorry if this has been asked but I couldn't find it during my search, I DNFed it! BiT
  7. Just curious, why to people complain about micro all the time when they themselves just TNLN on small and regular caches?
  8. I post mine and even bookmark them for all to see. I usually remove them from my bookmark list once I go back and find them or they become archived, but the DNF log is still on the cache page.
  9. I used both aerial and satellite images to help place my Big Brother is Watching cache. Fort Worth, Texas has an awesome aerial coverage with their "Bird's Eye View". The aerials were shot last winter and you can almost see the caches from your computer!
  10. Darkness, try a night cache stage in a totally dark area.
  11. I'll delete it. I didn't say that the cache wasn't creative or sneaky.
  12. No, I want to read something other than TFTTCTNSL 50 times from the same person as what has been happening in the immediate past.
  13. I also have the other side of the coin. ~ I really wasn't in the mood to write up a fancy page that time but had the hide already placed. So I did the lazy cacher hiders' page write-up.
  14. Here are some on mine that I got a little creative on. Mission-Top Secret Retrieval The Conundrum Quagmire Project
  15. Hit the local garage sales, I got a M505 for $10.00.
  16. Sounds like a good hide to me. These types of hide are my favorite and most rewarding for me.
  17. You arrived at GZ and looked, then you did not find it. Whether the cache is gone, you didn't have enough info, or you decided not to retrieve the cache you did not find it. I would write in my log the reasons why; PI, choose not to retrieve, didn't have all the cache page info, to hot and I gave up, etc....
  18. I've got about 25 night caches under my belt, don't know the exact number because I never really counted. Night caches are my favorite. I use a $12.00-$14.00 head light that I got at my local big box store (begins with the initials WM). It has a spot light, flood light, spot and flood combo, and red light features. I also carry a 500,000 candle power light of any tough rugged areas. I don't use it on the trails because it only has about 30 minutes of run time. This seems to work well for me.
  19. This isn't directed only at the above poster, but to everyone who thinks that people who post in the forums regularly don't get out much. I'm kind of limited on my gcing right now, we had a mishap a few days ago.
  20. Can you attend your own event or is that like finding your own cache? I tried a search on this topic but didn't come up with anything, sorry if has been previously asked.
  21. You shouldn't post pictures of travelbug tracking numbers. Someone could virtually grab the bug and move it. The owner would have a hard time figuring out where their bug really is. True, I usually don't. I never noticed it on this one since this was my first TB when I first start gcing. I glad I'm the owner. I'll delete the pic asap.
  22. Check this out. This is my cache in a parking lot of a large outdoor hunting camping store. Now look at all the finds on the three nearby caches in the same parking lot. Number 1 Number 2 Number 3 I think if people post a DNF it will "hurt their pride". Or maybe they think that it makes them look like they don't know how to cache or something like that. BTW: I posted four DNFs on my last caching adventure two days ago. I had four DNFs (two I choose not to climb for and two I could not find) and seven finds.
  23. If this is true it is happening without my knowledge or blessing - we screwed up on the run by doing this, were chastised, aplogized and learned from it. If any one is in fact still doing it after all that then I will be as angry as the rest of you. This is a pic from my Sprinkers Doom cache. There is also a pic on the log sheet. The logsheet was damp but was still able to be signed. I had deleted the online find log, I think that it dated May 22-23 as well as another log that didn't sign the logsheet and claimed a find. However, I do have to note that they did sign the logbook on another regular sized cache of mine. Sprinklers Doom is a mirco and Keller's Donation is a regular sized cache. Attached is a pic of the signed logbook on Keller's Donation and it is also posted to the cache page.
