Click "Choose File" to access your camera. Only use an image you are about to take or have just taken and edited. Important: Only take the picture at the current location of the secret. Do not upload an image from home as no one will visit your home. The image must be taken "live" within your community. By uploading, you certify that this is an image that belongs to you and you are allowing it be published on the HIDDEN:live site. We certify that will we not use your image for any other purposes.

GET STARTED	Start by logging in. Click [Play Live] to find secrets near you now. Click [Explore] to explore any community by map.
GPS/LOCATION SERVICES	Must be turned on to detect secrets. Learn How
HOW	Explore the Map to find secrets. When in Live Mode, the game will show you pictures of any secrets nearby (usually within about 100 feet). Click a secret to answer it's question. Get points for correct answers.
CREATE	Add your own secrets to the game at any time. Secrets are a combination of a picture, a question and an answer. When creating a secret, the answer must not be in the picture. Find the answer first, then take a picture of something nearby and add your question.
GPS FOR PHOTOS	The current location is attached to your photo. Always take the photo while you are on-site, never at home, as you don't want people visiting you!
WHAT MAKES A GOOD QUESTION AND ANSWER?	Look around and find something that has letters and/or numbers, or something that can be described with a single word or two. Be sneaky. Zoom in on words to keep the answer out of the picture. The answer must be visible nearby the picture location. NOTE: You can supply multiple (comma-separated) answers. NOTE: The secret object must be permanent - ask yourself if the object will not be there in a few weeks. If so, don't use it as the secret. Examples of answers: House numbers. Street numbers. Words on signs. Statues, sculptures and permanent artwork. Fixtures like meters. Things with serial numbers. Words just out of sight in your picture.
POINTS	There is a range of points for secrets from 10 to 50. If the answer is simple, give your question 10 points. Otherwise, give suitable points based on complexity.
WHY ZOOM NOT CENTERED	When you click or double click the map, the centerpoint will be the middle GeoHash, often surrounded by its neighbours.
WHAT ARE GEOHASHES?	GeoHashes are rectangular areas on a map that contain secrets. They are similar to geofences. We use geohashes of approximately 30 metres in live mode, except if within a mall or inside area, in which case we use 150 metres (since GPS doesn't work well inside).
EXAMPLES OF REAL QUESTIONS?	Use the map and visit the Toronto Ontario area. Examine the secrets to get a sense of the questions.
INVOLVE YOUR BUSINESS	Add a picture that is next to your business along with an engaging question to get people to come into your premises.
