"I started geocaching only about 4 1/2 months ago, and went to my first event when I only had 2 finds under my belt. I met a lot of nice people there, one of whom had brought his collection of over 300 pathtags. Of course I was curious about these little pieces of art, and asked to take a look at his collection. Right then, I just knew that I had to have my own! Later the same evening, I was given a signature tag by the tag's owner, and that only confirmed my desire to get my own! I resisted the temptation to hastily design my pathtag, but within 2 months I had placed an order. The blueprint confirmation process was a bit problematic for me, but now that my tags are here, I am absolutely thrilled with them! I'm so proud of the way they turned out, and am enjoying face-to-face trading with geocaching friends, and a little bit of trading through the mail so far. I can tell already that I will have to come up another design or 2 (or 3, or 4...)!"

"Deciding which metal plating to use on your Pathtag can have an impact on how the final tag looks. I decided to use Copper on our Vermont tag, and loved how it turned out! I'm so glad that there are different metal plating choices. They also provide an opportunity to order a refill with a differnt look to the tag, by choosing a different metal."

"I started having tags made at the beginning of 2009 and this is my 14th of now 16 tags. Needless to say I believe in the quality and consistency of these little buggers. It is a good artful release and the tag community is fantastic and fun to communicate with. This tag was a labor of love from me and the designer. It took a while to get it "right" but the tag team worked with me every inch of the way and the final product is STELLAR ! Much thanks to the tag team at Pathtags and my designer Jamie. You could even say it glows ! "

EYEDONSCHOTT

"We had this tag designed for the 2016 Geocoinfest in St. Louis Missouri. We love the way that it came out! DPI did a great job of making our design idea a reality. This tag was a huge hit at the event and now we are getting a tom of trade requests for the ones we have left."

"I live in South Australia and the Might Murray River flows through our state. In years gone by the paddle boats were the only form of reliable transportation. Now they are for pleasure cruises and always there are the amazing orange cliffs, eroded over thousands of years to look at. This pathtag turned out so well. To show the sun, cliffs, the river and the detail of the boat is incredible."

"Rocky Glen Grommets are absolutely delighted with their Curry Quarry Emu - midnightgothicangel and the production team have done a magnificent job - our shipment arrived earlier than we expected and Quarry Emu is already in circulation around the globe!"

"What's a pathtag? How do you make one? You mean people will actually like and want your tag and trade for one? I think I drove Gary at TexasDreamweaver nuts, but he did a great job! I waited, and waited.....checked the blueprint 20 times a day. I waited....and waited....anxiety building, excitement mounting as I told everyone I work with about these. They arrived on a Friday...and I RIPPED the box open in my CAR!! Ahhhhhh! They were GORGEOUS!! The detail! The color! and when you advertised GLOW, did they EVER! I frantically reordered and am designing another. 2 tags and I'm addicted to that rush you get when you hold that little work of art in your hand! Thank YOU. Your effort and attention to detail are outstanding!"
