+# Create and publish a map
+
+Built something worth getting lost in? Turn it into a map for other players.
+
+## The short version
+
+1. Capture views in Minecraft with a MineGeo capture tool.
+2. Upload them to your account.
+3. Check your private map and choose the views you want to use.
+4. Send it for review when it is ready.
+
+Uploading does not immediately make your map public. A **draft** is a map only you can work on before sharing it publicly.
+
+## How do I take the pictures?
+
+Use the MineGeo capture mod from [Downloads](https://minegeo.vercel.app/downloads). A mod is an add-on for Minecraft. It helps you capture views and send them to MineGeo.
+
+Open **Capture your Minecraft world** in these docs for the next steps. If you have never installed a Minecraft mod, ask a friend who has, or your server owner, to help. You do not need a capture tool just to play other people's maps.
+
+## Check your map
+
+After uploading, open **My account**, find your map, and click **Open map**. Wait for the pictures to finish preparing.
+
+Give it a clear name and description. Look all the way around each view: can a player see useful clues? Keep at least **five locations**. A map can hold up to **24**. Save your changes.
+
+> Your beautiful base: 10/10. Your ability to recognize its back wall: 0/10. 😅
+
+## Let everyone play
+
+Click **Submit for review**. A Moderator or Admin will check the map. If they return it, read their feedback, make the changes, and send it again.
+
+While a public map's update is being checked, players can still enjoy its previous approved version. Some editing controls are unavailable during review.
+
+A map imported from a friend's ZIP cannot be submitted as your own. You can play that copy privately instead.
