+jeff35080 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 When someone logs my Airports category with a new waymark or a log of a waymark and I go to accept or decline the entry I don't see where they have uploaded pictures... does that make sense? Basically, where do I view the uploaded pictures because I'm not seeing them on the logs. Help Link to comment
+The Leprechauns Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 There are two ways to add images to a Waymark. The first is to write up the Waymark page, and then click on the link in the right-hand column that says "Upload an image for this Waymark." The second way is to just use html in the waymark description, and link to the image from an external source, as in this example of a waymark that I submitted for my own category. I am giving a grace period for new submissions in my categories, but I do plan on circling back and asking people to add their photos. I will probably write up a form letter with step-by-step instructions, since the process works differently than uploading an image to a log on a geocache page. Link to comment
+jeff35080 Posted August 19, 2005 Author Share Posted August 19, 2005 One person that has logged my airports category has told me that they 'did' upload pics... Jeremy could you take a look at my pending logs for airports and see if you can see any pictures? Link to comment
+PeterNoG Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 In order to see the picture, after selecting the individual waymark (not the Airport catagory), on the right hand side there should be Waymark Options. One of these options is View the Gallery for this Waymark. It worked on My Waymark Link to comment

Jeremy Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Bootron will be making image uploads more obvious in the near future. Link to comment
+jeff35080 Posted August 20, 2005 Author Share Posted August 20, 2005 Duh <smack forehead with hand> there it is 'View Gallery' at the bottom of each waymarked airport. I can't believe I didn't see that earlier. I guess I'm just used to looking at a locationless log where you can instantly see the pictures. Jeremy, is there any way to make the pictures viewable without having to make an additional 'click' on a hyperlink? Link to comment
Jeremy Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Read my last post. The short answer is yes Images rock. Link to comment

I actually added that link just before I finished the day. It shows up as a link if there's anything in the gallery, and as a message telling you that there aren't any images yet if that is the case.

Jeremy could you take a look at my pending logs for airports and see if you can see any pictures? There is presently an issue where some images aren't making it to the correct waymarks. It's a bug that I thought I had stomped out a couple days ago, but has recurred a couple of times late this afternoon and evening. Luckily it's a pretty rare occasion when it happens, but that also poses a problem as it's hard to get it to recur enough to figure out the solution. Anyway, this bug will get my full attention when I return to the shop on Monday. In the meantime, keep an eye out for images that don't get posted properly. I'll also be adding an archive feature for images soon as well. Sorry for the hangups. bootron Link to comment

+Tsegi Mike and Desert Viking Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 For the computer inept like myself, how do I do html to make the photo appear on my waymark listing? Link to comment
Jeremy Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Bootron is the lead for Waymarking. I'm just the guy that stirs the pot and makes his job harder. Thanks bootron! Link to comment
+jeff35080 Posted August 20, 2005 Author Share Posted August 20, 2005 Thanks bootron! Ditto from me! Link to comment
+Smukke Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 I got an error message when trying to upload an image while editing the submitted waymark detail, but I was able to upload one while simply viewing the log. Anyway, both seem to be working now... good to know how to attach a photo. Link to comment
