SET Mechanical Turk FAQ: Clickable Box HIT
What should I do if part of the face or logo isn't contained in the box?
Only select the images where the box contains MOST of the face or logo. Don't select the image if the face/logo goes completely outside the box
The person of interest or the logo is in the image but not the box.
Don't select images where the red box doesn't contain the subject of interest.
What should I do if there isn't a box in the image at all?
Could be a glitch. Please let us know and don't submit the HIT.

What happens if I'm wrong?

What if I'm not sure or I don't know the answer?
If you're unfamiliar with the content (such as popular culture), it's best to skip that particular HIT.
