This JiX is mine - This is a standard designation for personal JiXes.

Search for a URL - Use the Google search field to search for the URL you are looking for. When the correct page appears below, assign that URL to a JiXlink by pressing on the JiXlink button. Start with JiXlink 1 for standard URLs, or select a social media link if the link opens a social media link.
JiX Location
Move and place the JiX into the location the JiX will be planted
JiX Size
Using the red knob on the perimeter circle, adjust the size of the JiX.
Max size is 50 meters.

Careful to leave room for other JiXes.
As good practice, keep your JiX confined to the property they regard.
(JiXler moderators may adjust JiX sizes to accommodate the virtual environment.)
Plant your JiX
Once your JiX is planted, it becomes a part of the JiXler virtual world.
Congratulations!
