+Jeffssis Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 A woman who found my cache posted a photo of herself with it, so that any mystery as to what it looks like is completely gone if someone examines the comments before they go searching. I would like that picture to be removed. Is that possible? Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 You can delete the image, as the cache owner, without deleting the underlying log. See the step-by-step instructions in this Help Center article. 4 Quote Link to comment

You may want to send the cacher a polite note explaining why you deleted the photo, and perhaps encourage her to post another photo that does NOT give away the hide. I enjoy posting photos of surrounding area, traveling trackables, maybe some wildlife that happens by while out caching... but I try not give away anything related to the cache/container/hide style. 1 Quote Link to comment

On the other hand, spoiler photos are the only way I ever find anything. 1 8 2 Quote Link to comment

I would like that picture to be removed. Is that possible? Curious, do you curtail wording in logs as well? I often look for underrated caches by reading logs, and a pic would be a plus. Something as simple as "higher than I thought..." can be very helpful. 1 Quote Link to comment
