Existing Community Requests:
In-house geochecker yes, better than use external ones
"Last Found" summary not important for me, usually I check few last logs
Ability to filter logs by clicking on log type icons nice idea and I think useful
Add event start and end time fields very useful for export to various calendars, in my case to Outlook, now I have to edit time manually in my calendar

Hello,
first of all thanks for this opportunity. Here are my observations/remarks:
1. What do you use the bio box for?
Especially for external statistics (project-gc) and for GeoTropy&GeoPuzzle.
2. Do you display banners from caches or events on your profile? How important is it to you that you are able to display these on your profile?
No, but never say never
3. What do you most enjoy looking at on others' profiles?
To be honest statistics and found caches only. However internal statistic are not so "attractive" in comparison with external ones (project-gc, geoget, gsak etc.), it means that the possibility to save the html link in BIO column is important for me.
4. Below you will find all the functionality that the page currently offers.
Place the items in a stack ranked list of priority. Things that are most important to you should be at the top.
Let us know if there is anything missing from the list.
What information isn’t necessary on the page? What is taking up screen space that shouldn’t be? What do you not find useful?
Profile: Fine as it is.

Multiple pages
If image is attached to geocache log, GC code is listed
Clicking image opens bigger view that links to log page/edit
Lists: Fine as it is
List of all caches that user has awarded a favorite point
List of all public bookmark lists
Statistics: I have already mentioned that internal statistics are not so attractive in comparison with external one. There are two possible ways - create totally new statistics and/or users should have a possibility to add external ones in BIO column.
Statistics that have been made public on geocaching.com/my/statistics.aspx

Create a "Geowigo" folder on your OneDrive and save there your cartridges. Everything is written here.

Hello, first of all thanks for the invitation.
I'd like to know if there is a possibility to translate this app to other languages, in my case I can help with Czech translation.

The same problem for Garmin Dakota 20 (Win 8, Win 7, IE 11, IE 9, FF 29). However I did not know that it works in caches' listings, thanks for this advice! I hope it will work from the map too... soon
EDIT: From today 20th May, it is working...
