Treat this matter with the utmost discretion

Let's face it, sometimes people can come up with the greatest ideas only to have someone else sneak away with them before the project can even get of the ground.

This is where locked projects come in. They hide your project's details from anyone who is not registered so that only registered Freelancers can see what you need done.

Locked Projects. Once a Project Manager has elected to lock his or her project from public viewing, the project is only available for the bidding process and viewing to registered Freelancer's of FlipShark.com only.

Note: Though this may keep your project more private, it can also reduce the number of bids, because qualified, yet unregistered, Freelancers might never get to see or bid on your project.
