+FrappGirl Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 About a year ago, my brother used a website that was amazing and super easy to create a geo-art series. It was at www.loggingcaches.com, but the site is no longer up. (The screenshot he sent me from back they actually says: www.loggingcaches.com/create-your-own-geocaching-geo-art/) Does anyone know who designed this or who might have owned it? I did some searching and couldn't come up with anything. I was looking for a program that could help me with creating a design. Thought reaching out on the forum may find the previous owner of that domain. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks! Quote Link to comment

There is only one archived image available from archive.org, and it does have a link to creating Geo Art on the bottom of the page, but neither that, nor any other links on that page were archived. Here's a good lead though, there are two different usernames that posted all the articles. The only I've ever seen was made by the world famous Dirtbag Geocaching Society, and shows you how to make a public domain "G". Quote Link to comment

I haven't confirmed this but I recently read somewhere that Adobe makes their older version of Photoshop available for free. The older versions are quite functional but I don't know if they are different enough that the video isn't applicable. There is also a free photo viewing/editing tool called Gimp that might work.

Mr.Yuck Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I hear varying reviews of Gimp. One star to five stars they're all over the place. I didn't know this, but apparently with Google as my friend, you can get photoshopCS2 for free if you have an Adobe account. From what I can tell looking over the downloads page though, they (Adobe) seem to think it's only going to work flawlessly on Windows XP and 2000. There were some MAC versions there too, but I don't know anything about that stuff. Quote Link to comment

OK, here's what I had found earlier in the day. This CNET article, which is a year old. The downloads page is still there on the Adobe website, but you must have an Adobe account (which is totally free). There is a link to the downloads page in the article. Quote Link to comment

The version I have running no my windows 8 machine is Photoshop 7. According to a wikipedia page it came out in 2002. I *do* have an Adobe account and could probably update it using the free links but it works fine for what I need to do. Quote Link to comment
