+WHO-DEY Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I upload a map onto my profile that shows the states that I have found a cache in. Now, I live in Michigan...and have only found in Michigan. I may use the "county map" one I have seen recently in some others profiles. In any case, is it possible to have that map idea part of the profile handled by GC.com? It stores the info already, it updates info as you enter in so many ways....is there a way to have that, and some other info hard coded? Even things like "favorite cache", and "hardest cache" Most memorable cache, and why" Just an idea instead of downloading, and then uploading back etc. For an example...go to my public profile....it is 50 caches out of date...but you will get the idea. -Who-Dey Link to comment

+KJcachers Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 no reason to have GC.com get involved in our profiles. everybody does something a bit different. I use GSAK and a couple different macros to create my profile. I even use another program to get the DeLorme Challlenge image that I then upload to Photobucket and then insert a link into my GSAK routine to make that map show in my profile. Link to comment

I like your DeLorme Challenge map. How do you do that? Jim Link to comment
+Lil Devil Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Seeing the way Groundspeak works, if they did add this, there would be only one way it would work, which would not be optimum, and we'd have daily threads asking (and sometimes insisting) that the format be changed. Or we could stick with the status quo, where there are at least half a dozen different sites and programs to get stats on your profile, each one customizable to various degrees. Link to comment
+WHO-DEY Posted April 7, 2009 Author Share Posted April 7, 2009 but my reasoning is that not all of us are technically, GSAK, GPX etc. inclined. So, for the less learned of us...it would be a nice option. I know many people that wouuld enjot it. And perhaps you could have a "use this" or "do not use this" check box for those that like to upload on their own. Link to comment
+legacypac Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 I'm not technical either, but have had good success with logicweave's Cachestats. Pretty simple to use. Link to comment
+webscouter. Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 In order for Groundspeak to do this it would be a dynamic map. That would be a huge server hit everytime someone viewed your profile. Link to comment
