Here's a quick and dirty tutorial on how to add an image to your GCA cache listing.

Step 1:

Create your cache listing and save it.

Step 2:

To the Right of your caches page you will see the option 'Add/Edit gallery' under Owner actions.

Select this.

Step 3:

Select 'Add another item to this cache'

Upload all the Images you wish to use for the cache listing.

Step 4:

Go back to your caches page, and you will now see a 'Gallery' section below the description

Click on 'View Gallery items for this cache' and then click on the picture you wish to use in the cache listing.

You should now see a full size version of the image

Right click on the images and select 'Copy image location'

Step 5:

GO back to your caches page and edit the listing

type: <img src='paste your images location_here'> eg: <img src='http://gallery.geocaching.com.au/pics/ga0452/272.jpg'>

Save it and you should now see an image in your caches listing!


It's a little agricultural right now, but we'll be improving on this in a future release
