    Release Notes 1/12/10

    in Website

    Posted

    Besides the fact that the new layout simply has no charm ...

     

    Am I the only one who is unable to print the first page of the cache discriptions???

     

    All info is nearly outside the paper format on the reight side (only a few characters are visible) - and of course it doesn't change when I switch between horizontal and landscape page setup.

     

    Funny ... on pages 2+ it's ok.

     

    Whoever has written such a crippled CSS code ... go ahead, read your books!!!

     

    What a mess!!!

     

    Cheers

    If no one from Austria raises his hands ... :)

     

    I live in southern Germany, close to Lake Constance and therefore close to Austria and the Swiss - so if I can help you just let me know.

     

    You'll find my address in the address spreadsheet.

     

    Cheers,

    Whoa! gotta get some! I think Castleman is going to carry those?

     

    Edit? Actual I just checked and I'm not sure now if he will carry those or not? HMMMNNN?

     

    Out of curiosity ... why should he carry those? :)

     

    They are not part of "his" Viking Heritage Series - and if you take a closer look to the site where the swedish coins are shown than you'll find a swedish coin seller :)

     

    Cheers,

    GEOCOIN TRADING, WANTS, OFFERS AND LISTS

    I am at a loss!!! I am trying to finish up my Compass Rose collection and the only one I need is the Compass Rose XXLE, the Copper Finish. Now, I know only ONE was made and was awarded to the winner of a contest in Temecula last year. If the winner is out there, I would like to trade a Moun10Bike version 3 #406.

     

    The winner sold it for charity on Ebay. The Ebay winner to my knowledge still has the coin. Now who would that be? . . . . ..

     

    TMA

     

    AFAIK a few weeks later the winning bidder was offered quite a significant amount for the coin ... no chance :rolleyes::wub:

     

    Cheers

    The Wishing Coin...'Tis a mystery for sure...

    in Trackables

    Posted

    Wow ... a new mystery coin! And what a beautiful one !!! :)

     

    Kois ... ahhh that raises some memories from the nearly long forgotten past :-) It was back in the beginning of the seventies (if I remember correctly) and there was a large national garden fair / exibition in Bonn (the former capitol of Germany) near the river Rhine. My grand-ma took me with her to visit this fair and I was truely excited to see all the different arrangements of garden styles coming from all over the world.

     

    Most fascinating was the so-called "Japanese Garden Center". A perfect mixture of wooden buidlings, large ponds, bridges, stone gardens, small trees, etc etc. We managed to find a place on a bank directly on a wooden bridge from where we had a beautiful view into the ponds directly beneath us. Of course, I knew the different types of fishes from the garden ponds of our neighbours - mostly gold fishes. But what I saw there was fascinating and amazing to me: Kois, in all possible color combinations! Later my grand-ma told me, that I watched them speachless for over 10 minutes - which was quite rare for me at that age :D

     

    The idea hit me like a lighning - and there was no arguing about it ... :laughing:

     

    I decided that this kind of fish was the perfect present to my mother for the next mother's day! So before my grand-ma noticed, I stood up, climbed down the small bridge and stood within the pond - trying to catch some Kois with my little hands. Needless to say, that it came as it should - I slipped away and took a refreshing bath inside the pond :laughing:

     

    To shorten up the upcoming troubles: Certainly I didn't had a Koi as a present to my mother - instead I was lying in bed with a bad cold for a few days ... :D

     

    Congratulations, Naomi and Team Fireboy ... may you never forget your story of this coin! :D

     

    Cheers

    After seeing no less than 8 of my gifted coins go to ebay over the past year I have made a hard decision to not make a V2.

     

    For those of you who received one of my coins as a gift or a find, congratulations.

     

    I am very sorry to hear this and even if I can fully understand your reaction - please don't allow those folks to drag you down (and this is addressed to all mystery coiners)!

     

    With your coins you give so much pleasure and excitement to all of "us out here"! Reading the forums rather quietly (without being able to participate often), all the stories of the mystery coins are one of the highlights in this forum for me (and I truely believe that I'm not alone with this feelings).

     

    I can't express how much I would miss them!

     

    Cheers,

    Dirk

    the vendor said there was only one edition of purple haze, nickel. no gold.

     

    Hm, what is the coin I have? :huh:

    I had a look at what I assume being the "Purple Haze" and it is for sure gold.

     

    Rainer

     

    Believe it or not ... Jim did a mistake :huh::D:):D:D

     

    The color scheme he denied came very close to the german PINK edition, the one he accepted is instead the Rhodium Light ("girl") ... place a light in front of each color for the inner rings and it fits. Please keep in mind the "unseen" discussion about the pink edition at that time (officially called "Sepp & Berta") and that both (Sepp & Berta) were bombed with requests at that time. Furthermore Jim never put a list together by himself but just commented the given one.

     

    You can see the "Purple Haze" in all it's beauty in post #29 - and it's gold for sure!

     

    Owning all of the editions except the US and Portugal ones, I allow myself to assist Rainer (Whitby) that he's correct B)

     

    Cheers,

    Dirk

    In another time and space continuum ... there's only one word for you: TRA*TOR !!!
