* Cardiff Live! * webcam,
Wales |
This webcam is situated in Kingsway
Street in cardiff - overlooking Cardiff Castle, Bute Park
and the Millennium Stadium is not far away. If you are
visiting the city, why not get a little geocaching in and bag this
webcam cache. Its fun! Look for the Hilton Hotel across the road -
see the webcam on top? SMILE :)
To do this Webcam geocache, you will
need:
- GPS
- Mobile phone
- Friend behind a computer
connected to the Internet and a phone to operate the
camera
- The desire to have your picture
taken with the Geocaching logo (optional) posted
here
or
- You could always do this yourself
with a web enabled laptop!
|
-
Call your friend and
get them to access the webcam on the Internet. All they have to do
is navigate the webcam to find you in your classic pose holding
your Geocaching Logo (see uploaded images) page and take a
snapshot! Get them to email the photo to you so you can upload it
with your log. Thats it!

THE
WEBCAM
(Click to

|
This webcam is fully
user-interactive. To begin control of the camera click the "Start
Control" button. Your turn to operate the cam is counted down on
the queuing timer. Once it turns green, use the slider bars, click
on the image, or try a preset camera position. Its simple to use
with a little practice.
All your friend has
to do is track you down using the webcam. Once found and you have
selected a cool pose with the Geocaching logo
(optional), he/she can snap your picture by pressing the
mini camera icon at the bottom left corner of the
webcam.
This will bring up
another screen with the photo. Right click the mouse and Save
Picture. Voila! Make sure you get your helper to practice first as
popup blockers might need switching off first. Get them to email
you the photo, you upload the photo with your log and your 90
seconds of fame is immortalized!

Thanks
to St Andrews.com who operate this brilliant webcam.

At times, this webcam
may be down for maintenance or repair, or maybe even because too
many users are using it! As this is a webcam cache, you will need
to come back another day to try again, sorry!

With effect from November 1st 2007, all "Webcam Photo
Taken" logs without an uploaded WEBCAM photo will be requested to
be changed to a "Note". If this is not done, the log will be
deleted. This is a webcam cache and needs a webcam
photo. This is not a virtual cache and the difficulty level is set
accordingly. The camera needs to be zoomed in on you so you can
be seen
clearly.. |
