How to Hide Photos in Roll20 for a Seamless Game Experience

Hey buddy, you ever play D&D on Roll20 and like, accidentally show a picture that totally ruins the surprise? Like, you’re trying to be all sneaky with your super cool dragon and boom! Everyone sees your cute cat pic instead? Yikes!

So today, I’m gonna tell you how to hide photos in Roll20. And I promise it’ll be more fun than watching paint dry. Let’s dive in!

Step 1: Upload Your Photo Like a Pro
Okay, first thing first, you gotta upload those images to Roll20. It’s kinda like putting snacks in your backpack before going on an adventure. So go ahead and click that upload button. Find that epic photo of the dragon or whatever. But don’t click “Save” yet…

Step 2: Give Your Photo a Silly Name
Now you know how we all have embarrassing names from our childhood? Like “SneakySnail97”? Yeah, let’s do that with your photo! Call it something completely unrelated like “Grandma’s Cookies” or “Ninja Kittens.” No one will suspect a thing.

Step 3: Pick the Right Settings
You gotta play ninja here. Find the settings for your photo after uploading it. You wanna choose options like hiding things from players or making it secretive like a super stealthy secret agent! Just remember, if they ask about the kittens, just say it’s classified info.

Step 4: Put That Pic Where No One Can Find It
Now it’s time to put that photo somewhere sneaky. Maybe in a folder called “Boring Stuff” or “Not Important.” Seriously, no one is gonna look there unless they are super nosy—or maybe just really hungry for cookies!

Step 5: Use the Drawing Tool Like Picasso
Wanna hide what you want but still tease people? Draw over your photo using Roll20’s drawing tool! Make some squiggly lines around it or slap on some goofy stickers. Ta-da! Now everyone thinks you’re an artist while secretly covering up that dragon pic you were so excited about!

Step 6: Preview Before You Show
Look, you gotta do a little test run before the game starts. Click on that preview button and see if anybody can find where you hid your masterpiece of grandma’s cookies aka dragon pics. If they find it too easy, try again! You need ninja skills for this mission!

Step 7: Enjoy Your Seamless Game
Finally time for the game to start! Chill out and roll those dice while knowing no one saw your ninja kittens when they were supposed to see fire-breathing dragons! Just laugh when someone asks about those images—they think they’re seeing what you’re showing them but what they don’t know won’t hurt them right?
