Two new additions are live on the site!
1) The My Memorable Finds profile section has two new options for how you can display your First to Finds. The first is a drop-down where you can choose how many of your FTFs you'd like to show in detail in your profile - all of them (up to 400), 10, 25, 50, 100, 250, or there is the option to only show the number of FTFs without details. The second option allow you to decide whether you want to show your most recent FTFs or your oldest FTFs. Some people want to celebrate their 10 original FTFs! Some want to always see their most recent 25 FTFs! Now everyone can customize their profile however they want. As always, Contact Us if you have any problems, questions, or if you have ideas for more settings.
2) Recently, the "My Finds By Day of the Year" section was changed so that the months extended horizontally across the top of the chart and the days extended vertically down the chart. This allowed room for the find counts to be visible while still fitting into the narrow geocaching.com profile space. Now, the "old" orientation (days across the top, months down the side) is also available! The information is much smaller and may be further reduced by geocaching.com in the profile, but it's up to you if you want to show it off.
This chart is a "new" profile section, so if you'd like it to appear on your geocaching.com profile, remember to check off the feature on the "Build My Profile" page, upload your My Finds PQ to generate the latest images, and then do a one time copy/paste of all your profile HTML from the "Preview and Export Profile" page over to your geocaching.com "About" field on your Settings page.

Two Changes - Badge Requirements and My Finds By Day of the Year Layout
Two new changes have been released to mygeocachingprofile.com!
The first change adjusts how many webcam and virtual caches you need to find to qualify for a GeoAchievement badge. Webcams are increasingly scarce as new webcam caches aren't allowed and old ones break down. You'll now be rewarded a Webcam GeoAchievement Badge for the following accomplishments:
The virtual badge requirements have also changed so they are more in line with the number of virtuals available. The new requirements are as follows:
The second change involves some aesthetic fine-tuning to the My Caching Chronology section. Some font and positioning changes have been made to ensure that cachers with REALLY large find counts still have legible stats and charts. The biggest change affects the My Finds By Day of Year chart which has been rotated so that the months go across the top of the table and the days are listed down the side. This rotation helps us fit more information into the table while still keeping it narrow enough to show up nicely on the geocaching.com profile page. Hopefully it makes the table easier to read. Expect more fine-tuning to other sections in the near future.
