Account reinstated.

Born Oct 1999 in Croatia and have a degree in computer science. Currently primarily live in Copenhagen, Denmark. The easiest way to see most of what I do is to have a look at the links below.

I get involved with local wildlife, so I am primarily interested in local species. On November 11^th, I became a Croatian translator and proofreader for all three iNaturalist projects. I translated over 10,000 words and 2,500 strings. Feel free to join! (13% | 23% | 23%)

Relevant iNaturalist checklists:
Europe: 1, 2 | Croatia: 1, 2

iNat checklists I compiled:
Reptiles of Croatia | Amphibians of Croatia | Opiliones of Croatia

Primary taxonomic interests: Araneae, Brachyura, Mantodea, and Reptilia of Europe.

Stats on my findings: https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/marino-linic-s-observations

See my observation heatmap, identification heatmap and taxonomic tree of observations.

I did this thing where I added tags for rare observations. My "rare" iNat observations in countries (less than ~10 observations at time of upload in the country the picture was taken in), first time a species was catalogued by me on iNat in Croatia¹, oldest observation date in Croatia for the given species, and my first observations of species on iNat globally. These are favorite observations of mine.^{museum|venom|introduced|gifs|hands|flying|threat_display|guides|predation|sounds}

Tips:

*italicized text*, _italicized text_ = italicized text
**bolded text** = bolded text
~~strikethrough text~~ = strikethrough text (not shown)
# text / ## text / ### text = title / header text (not shown)
> quoted text = quoted text (not shown)
[linked text](URL) = linked text (check out the link!)
![](URL) = image in comments (URL has to lead directly to the image source; so right click, open image in new tab, and then copy the link)

You can use GIFs for image input on findings (and obviously audio as well); this essentially allows video. I would caution against uploading the GIF before uploading the observation, since it is prone to error. Instead, make sure your GIF is under 20 MB in size, and just add it once your observation is already uploaded. Then, give it some time to show up (~15 min)
You can use HTML tags, meaning -- links, pictures, superscripts, etc in bios and comments
You can see your comments here and all flags here (but change user). Search all comments by specific keyword = inaturalist.org/comments?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=keyword&commit=Search
read up on the search guide
Some info on location and batch editing (multiple observations at once)
What to look for when photographing various animals to help with ID? Here's another guide
On Identify pages, change 30 results per page to 200 - paste "&per_page=200" at the end of the URL. Though actually, I wouldn't recommend this since the page loads slower. Here's an example.
You can tell how many people joined before you and what place your membership is at chronologically by looking at your profile URL. For example, you can reach my profile by clicking on https://www.inaturalist.org/people/5691431 or https://www.inaturalist.org/people/marinolinic. Because the URL ends in 5691431, I am the 5,691,431^st member. The first person who joined, the creator of the site, is at https://www.inaturalist.org/people/1.
Refresh the page if the map isn't showing observations.
iNaturalist has an API: https://api.inaturalist.org/
This guy has some additional URLs.
If you want to see images of species by annotated categories like sex or life stage, remember that you can do that in gallery. Just press the "+" icon after the 5th image on the taxon page and customize the filter at the top of the page that opens up.
