AperfectBot

Hi Jim! It seems that AperfectBot is not working right now. Could you please ask Aperfectring to restart it? I'd ask myself, but it seems that he is reading messages from you, but not from me. --Fippe (talk) 21:12, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Hillsboro & Rock Creek Expeditions

Hi Jim! You created two meetup pages for geohashes to Hillsboro and Rock Creek, but without any details. The one in hillsboro seems to have been on a golf course. Did you get the golf geohash achievement? --Fippe (talk) 23:30, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

2021-03-17 45 -122 and 2021-06-09 45 -122

Did you go on these expeditions? --Fippe (talk) 11:43, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

-Hi JimL, as you know, your graticule was the site of the the very [[2008-02-19 45 -122|first geohashing expedition]] but there is some controversy around the photo, and not complete certainty that they did the coordinates for the 19th on the 19th. They LOOK right from the satellite view, but I wonder if your graticule could, sometimes as a project, go to the February 19th site and try to recreate the photo. Sometimes when you're in the area anyway. Maybe I'll come down and help. -[[User:Robyn|Robyn]] 06:53, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

-== Portland Oregon formatting ==
-hi [[User:Jiml|Jiml]], you contacted me about changing the style of the [[Portland, Oregon]] page, maybe prettying it up a bit. it already looks great to me ... is there anything in particular you had in mind? -- [[User:Sermoa|sermoa]] 21:39, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
-:I was fighting with the picture, trying to make it work better.  I though you might know some magic.  [[User:Jiml|Jiml]] 23:30, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
-::Ah, i see. the usual trick is to put it into a 'thumb' and set the size. you also get to add a caption, which is nice. Like this: <pre>[[Image:PDX-West-Hills.jpg | thumb | 600px | left | View of the west hills of Portland, Oregon]]</pre> The catch is that thumbs tend to float, either left or right, meaning the text will wrap around. If that's not what you want you have to add a CSS trick to break the float: <pre><br style='clear:left;' /></pre> I've had a go on the [[Portland, Oregon]] page, see what you think. -- [[User:Sermoa|sermoa]] 12:04, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
-:::I tried your trick and it seems to work pretty well.  Thanks for the help! [[User:Jiml|Jiml]] 18:59, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
-::::Oh good, i'm glad to hear it! :) I'm always happy to help if i can. -- [[User:Sermoa|sermoa]] 21:22, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
-== Map Captions on Expedition Pages ==
-They keep saying "Very good site!", and then there is a lot of random websites. What is that all about? -- [[User:Jkilbey|Jkilbey]] 06:02, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
