Description:
Geothumbs is a browser script that replaces the small picture frame icons on geocaching.com cache and logbook pages with thumbnails of the actual images. The script is tested to work with Firefox but may also work with other browsers.
On cache and logbook pages clicking an image thumbnail will pop-up the full sized image in the existing 'lightbox' feature. Clicking the sides of this full sized image (or using the keyboard left and right keys) will allow you to move between all the images in the gallery. For images currently shown on the cache page each pop-up image will show the image title, who took it, when it was taken, any image description, a link to the cache log and a link to view the image. To provide some protection against viewing spoilers inadvertently any image labelled as a spoiler will not be shown by default. This mode of operation can be changed in the settings to always shown spoilers.
On gallery pages Geothumbs can be used to change the number of images per row if required.
Geothumbs can be configured to your preferred operation by selecting 'Geothumbs Options' in Tampermonkey extension menu.
You will be automatically notified whenever an update to the script becomes available.
Notes:
If you use the GC Little Helper script then you may need to uncheck the 'Show Thumbnails of Images' option in GC Little Helper.
