Posting Pictures

[Three Girls and a Guy]

I am new to both Geocaching and my computer. How do I go about posting a picture to a log? I have saved the picture to my computer but don't know where to go from there. Can someone help?

After you log your find you can go back and edit it. There you will see an option for uploading photos. They need to be 125k or less or they will not work. I hope this helps you in the right direction for what you want to do. Welcome!

After you add your log go to the cache page and look at the bottom of your log you will see the following link "upload an image for this log" click the link. On the next page click on browse and select your picture that you saved to your computer. Then add a caption and decription if you would like then click upload and your picture should be there. One note though the file size can't be bigger then 125k.

You need to upload the image first,either somewhere on the net or,easy option,to "Geocaching".

 

Go to Geocaching.com http://www.geocaching.com/

Click on "My cache page" http://www.geocaching.com/my/

Click on "Change your account info" http://www.geocaching.com/login/user.asp

Click on "do so now" where it mentions about uploading images http://www.geocaching.com/upload/account_images.asp

 

After uploading,you will see a list of your images on your "images account page" http://www.geocaching.com/upload/account_images.asp

 

Right click on the image you want to post and left click copy

When you "reply to your topic",click on the "img" radio button and paste in the url of your image and you're good to go

 

hopefully

They want to add a photo to a log! Does not need to be already online. You can upload photos from your hard drive directly. Only in the forums does it need to already be on the web somewhere.
