# Creating Torrents
Transmission always needs the full path to every file, and the daemon will need permission to view the file.
When it doubt, just place the files in `transmission`'s home directory.
Create a torrent of file or directory `Memes` with:
> transmission-create Memes
```bash
sudo chown -R :transmission Memes
transmission-create $(pwd)/Memes
```
Add a tracker to the torrent, to make sure others can find you easily:
> transmission-create --comment 'My Memes collection' -t 'udp://tracker.publicbt.com:80' -t 'udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80' --anonymize Memes
```bash
transmission-create --comment 'My Memes collection' -t 'udp://tracker.publicbt.com:80' -t 'udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80' --anonymize Memes
```
Without the `--anonymize` flag, the torrent file output will have a 'created by' and 'created date'.
