Cache page amended and 'softened' so now there shouldn't be any doubt about what to do ...

Thanks everyone for your support & experience. Hzoi, you have been lucky so far with your own 25 ECs. Out of 43 'finders', we already had 2 dishonest & arguing... I reply to all the emails with answers, either to say 'well done' or help with unclear or wrong answers, but I accept all the logs (as per the rules) as far as someone had genuinely tried to answer Yes, point taken, J Grouchy & niraD, I'll delete the log again, and again and again...

I have contacted the UK Reviewer to see what his/her opinion is. I'll leave the cache page as it is for the moment and will act depending on the advice I'll receive. I had plans to create more ECs but it is a drag if people are not honest. What's the point? We DO enjoy visiting ECs, they give an extra dimension to geocaching

I didn't delete the second log as this sort of people are very stubborn...

I am the CO of an earth cache, which is not too difficult (1.5/2). Recently a geocacher logged a find without bothering to send any answers to any questions. I contacted him reminding him of the earthcaches' rules and wishing him good luck Happy New Year, then I deleted the log. He logged again with 'Didn't have time to do the questions but took a photo of me and site. Tftc". So NO ATTEMPT WHATSOEVER to ANSWER ANYTHING, not even giving a measurement estimate, which would have been dead simple . I wrote a note on the EC page, saying: [] The previous log by "------" is NOT VALID as no questions were answered despite a request to do so in a separate email [] What is the point of someone doing that? What is the solution? Second time this happened

Thank you for your answer as well, great relief to get some help from the Forum! All the best

I tried that, and no, the server seems to get confused again. I think you have a stray quotation mark in there. Try this code (which I've pasted your specified image into): <br /> <center><img src="https://d1u1p2xjjiahg3.cloudfront.net/5f553ee0-180a-4f11-86e9-841988000702_l.jpeg" /></center> <br /> The server is stripping out "<P>" paragraph tags, but maybe <BR> tags (line feeds) will do. As long as you want line feeds and centering (the above code has no image size attribute), simply replace the image URL with whatever online image you like, if it's sized to fit. You do not need an "alt" attribute, but if you use one, it goes at the end of the "img" tag. Otherwise strange things happen. I can't explain why. I think it's a bug. Or a feature. Thank you so much, it works!!! Very grateful!

Thanks for your quick reply. This is different now because the photo address is not from geocaching.com but ….cloudfront.net, which seems to make all the difference. The photo address is now: https://d1u1p2xjjiahg3.cloudfront.net/21309046-1475-4428-a05a-cb2a16a935d9_l.jpg instead of http://img.geocaching.com/cache/large/21309046-1475-4428-a05a-cb2a16a935d9.jpg as it used to be This photo actually exists on my cache page as I created it before I had the Mac. Just trying now to create another cache page with the same system which includes the "alt" at the end. Should it look like?: <p> <center><img src=“https://d1u1p2xjjiahg3.cloudfront.net/5f553ee0-180a-4f11-86e9-841988000702_l.jpeg” alt"/></center></p> If you are able to tell exactly how to write at the end, it would be great ;-) thanks!

It might not help you but just in case you have access to a Mac, Safari is still supporting the Garmin interface plug-in Garmin Communicator. I also used to download everything from Chrome, which suddenly stopped working with my Garmin...Infuriating Good luck!

I have 67 caches under my name, all created when I had a PC. I used to be able to insert photos easily on my PC, when creating a new cache page. I used to load the photo on the cache page, then open it and copy it into the page. At the time of creating the cache, the 'formula' for 'My Green Valley' cache (GC4J16J) was as follows: <br /> <center><img src=“http://img.geocaching.com/cache/large/21309046-1475-4428-a05a-cb2a16a935d9.jpg” alt="My Green Valley" height="480" width="640" /></center> <br /> Since I changed my laptop for a MacBook Air (OS X Yosemite, version 10.10.4, which is upgraded on a regular basis), I have never found a way to insert photos. Now if I open the same photo from 'My Green Valley' cache, it looks like this: https://d1u1p2xjjiahg3.cloudfront.net/21309046-1475-4428-a05a-cb2a16a935d9_l.jpg Applying the same system with <center><img src=“http:// ....etc, does not work. Is there anyone who could help me get the right 'formula'? It would be great to be able to add pictures again... I would be most grateful!! Thank you! pilot03 (UK)

I used to be able to edit my trackables, it was so easy a few months ago! Now I can't edit them. I would like to add a translation on some of them...... Oh, found the solution: forget Google whatever version, Chrome works on a PC with Windows 7 !!! Thanks pilot03
