whats the big deal, well u go to a cache with stuff to swap and when you get to it its the size of you finger tip, you do get piss off some what. so it would be good to know what size of cache you are going to and small is not a nano. as most put on there cache small and its a nano.

I think everything is fine the way it is, there are to many rules already. we should be able to see what type of cache it is. that why we are asking for an icon for a nano.

Some will, some won't. We'll never know how many until after there is a nano size. that is true but hope there put an icon in place soon

and you think hiders are going to make it easy for you to filter their nano? DREAM ON! well if we keep on at geo we well get our way

Perhaps you will like this video, then. They've been threatening to give them their own size for quite some time. At first they resisted, saying that they are micros, and should be listed as such. Personally, noticed from my periodic surfing of the new cache listings in New York, Ontario, and Pennsylvania for the last couple of years, I believe at least 75% of them are published with the size being "not listed" or "other" EDIT: I'm apparently too dumb to imbed the video, but the link works. i like the video very good And I just noticed your from Scotland. Nice little UK content for you there with the Dalek, eh? yes i live 15 miles out side Glasgow, yip i do like Dr who and it good to see it has made a come back on TV. lol

no there are not,

This concept has resulted in the downsizing of all larger cache sizes, unfortunately. Quite a few "smalls" today are pill bottles that can't even hold a geocoin because the opening is too small. But the cache owners won't call them micros, because to them, the nano has become the standard size for a "micro" specification. And because tiny pill bottles have become the new "small", sandwich-size containers are now called "regular". Love nanos or hate them; it doesn't matter -- having them be their own size might put the other sizes back to where they are supposed to be. I would agree with this. I don't quite understand how it happened either. The guidelines give some good examples of how to estimate the size of your container. But that's the real problem. Many who hide caches NEVER take the time to read, much less comprehend the guidelines. They are written at a grade school reading level so I must assume people just don't care to read them vs not understanding them. I would still be in favor of a simple test that users must pass before hiding caches. Ah, but I digress.... Nanos, eh? I have seen some great hides using them and some not so great. Really no different than any other size in that respect. The trick in hiding any size cache is taking the time to think it through and be clever about it. Using a new size designation for nanos would be a good thing simply because the IS a big difference between an actual micro and an actual nano. Helps when hunting just like any other sizes. The real trick is getting everyone to size their caches correctly that is true, i have come across some that are just a waste of time, i stopped caching for a bit due to the fact that every time i went to cache site's it would turn out to be a nano. so how do we go about getting geo to put an icon on so if you a putting a new cache out and it is a nano you have a icon for it so we can just see from the page what it is ???

i would love to do the same, well hope geo will sort the site out so we can.

what is every one views on Nano's do you think we should have an Icon for them and do you think there are good for geocaching????

[has any one found out any thing about jerry and where he went and i see the web site is down now as well???????????????????????

That is incredibly kind of you! I will show this post to my daughter (dmagoo on this site) and ask her what she would like to do. i hope jerry is ok i order my one in march then on the 120808 i just a email from him saying he would send a picture of it at the end of the week. so if any one stays next to jerry can they give him a vist to see if every thing is well with him. jim
