Waymarking For Dummies

[+mikemtn]

I've been playing around with Waymarking and was sort of getting to understand how it works. Then a couple of my Waymarks didn't get approved because I missed in the instructions that the Waymark page had to have a photo. This is all well and good if I knew what HTML is. I have no desire to know anything about HTML. Is this going to exclude me from Waymarking?

you dont need HTML to put up a photo on Waymarking. The ability to post a photo is built into the system. Just follow the prompts

Libraries does require the image to be on the waymark page. Not too hard to do though, just post a pic to the gallery, view the image and then copy the link to the waymark page like this:

 

<img src="http://img.Groundspeak.com/Waymarking/etc etc">

 

Make sure you check the HTML box when you edit the waymark page.

Should look something like this when you are done:

 

 

The "<br><br>" tags are used to put a blank line between the picture and the description text which follows on the waymark page.
