New Hider

After 18 months of caching we decided to hide a cache of our own. It is a multicache which yields numbers to be placed on a 9x9 sudoku grid. Solving the grid yields data for the cache location.

I have been unable to upload the graphic of the grid onto the cache listing form. I know it must be possible as I have seen listings with maps etc.

I have tried a table in word, graphic from paint shop pro and saving as a web page.

Can anyone advise me?

Make it a jpeg and use this HTML code to insert it into your page:

 

<center>

<img src="http://yourimage.jpg" width="110" height="144"></center>

 

You'll have to play around with the width and height numbers to make it look right.

best to make the image the size you want it to look on the page and use width and height numbers that match the actual dimensions of your image

I have been unable to upload the graphic of the grid onto the cache listing form.

In the upper right corner of the cache page there's a button labeled "upload images".

 

After uploading your image a link appears in the lower left corner of the cache page. Click on that link to get the image URL, it should be something like:

http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/e640fe13-a576-4ecb-bf02-919cc000d450.jpg

 

Now you can use Brian's method to incorporate that URL into your cache description:

<center>
<img src="http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/e640fe13-a576-4ecb-bf02-919cc000d450.jpg" width="110" height="144">
</center>

 

Good luck

Sudoku is a great numbers puzzle that's sweeping Japan and Europe and slowly making its way into the US:

We have a local cache based on it (I was too late in getting mine ready!):

Thank you for the laugh- and the interesting idea... wasn't expecting to see a puzzle that resembles some of my 9-yr-old's math homework assignments! I'm going to have to look over that idea a bit more...
