Illustrator/Amateur cartoonist living in South Korea

@leesol: "Hello! I’m @leesol, an illustrator living in South Korea. I was an ordinary worker that liked to travel. It was my hobby to do sketches during my travels. One day, one of my travel sketches was put in the lonely planet magazine. After that, I started to draw more after work and got the opportunity to publish serially as follows..."

A Turkish Filmmaker Intruduce Yourself

@vitruvianman: "First of all I would like to say thank you @sndbox for supporting our projects. It is very difficult for us to introduce our projects in our community. Thanks to them, we have a chance to show our posts to the whole Steemit community. And of course thanks to @monomyth for introducing us to them. Enough of that Oscar talk and lets meet!..."

Sndbox – First Week Report + Brainstorm About Possible Improvements

@fingersik: "The first week as a member of our incubator is at the end. So far it has been a very unique experience. This article will serve as an explanation to those who might be interested in joining our ranks, as well as feedback material for our founders. Let’s get to it...."

Steemit Burnout: What to do When You've Got Steem-Powered Writer's Block

@hansikhouse: "Hey everyone! I've finally been getting in the working groove with our @sndbox project and want to get back to doing more casual and fun-oriented posts. A lot has been on my mind and I figured some ruminations like the one themed in this title would be of some good food for thought for fellow Steemians..."

Urban Designer/Planner/Architect + Social Equity Activist using Steemit to push awareness and inquiry of cities!

@tyler-cukar: "I’m Tyler! I am an urban designer based in New York City, living in Brooklyn, studying cities and people across the United States. I work at FXFOWLE Architects in Manhattan during the day and write and research race, social equity, and the role design plays in it by night..."

[Sndbox] My Amazing First Two Weeks w/ Steemit’s Creative Incubator + Ideas for the Future

@heymattsokol: "When I received a message from @hansikhouse asking if I would join Sndbox… the answer was obvious: YES! I’ve been a huge fan of his work with @voronoi in the @hitheryon collective, particularly their Steem Park project: (https://steemit.com/steempark/@hitheryon/the-official-recount-of-steem-park-s-opening)
In fact, to this day I believe that Steem Park is the single greatest grassroots project to happen on Steem. It’s a physical installation representing Steem in a busy park in Brooklyn. That's awesome..."


Steemit for Students

@somethingburger: "Formal education is often a simple exchange: professors teach students, and students turn in work to their professor. Yet as a student I want to share the things that I learn and the work I create more widely. Since what I'm studying is useful and interesting to me, perhaps it might interest friends, family, or even strangers..."

Our Marketing Strategy for a 22,000 SQ FT Retail Space on Fifth Avenue in NYC

@design-guy: "As described briefly in an earlier post about our 60’ billboard design, we were tasked with creating the marketing strategy, materials, renderings and billboard for a real estate developer based in New York City. The developer owns a large building on Fifth Avenue, directly across from the Empire State Building and they are rebuilding the first four floors to be a flagship store. They came to us to create the strategy and materials to help lease the space..."

I joined Sndbox! - Designer from New Zealand

@joshtristram: "I'm a young Kiwi with a passion for website design, web development, graphic design, and sports. I have been doing design for the past three years, and it has become a large part of who I am. Only recently have I gotten into website development, and I am really enjoying it and wish to take Steemit along for the ride as I learn more about it..."

My Favorite Place | The Writing Closet

@kenfinkel: "The 295-year-old Abel and Mary Nicholson House in rural Salem County, New Jersey couldn’t be more inconveniently located, but it’s uniquely special and profoundly memorable. This place is one of the few sites to make it through all the hurdles and achieve the status of National Historic Landmark. The exterior is considered “perhaps the finest and most complete surviving example of patterned brickwork from the earliest years of the phenomenon” in a county where patterned brickwork was more elaborate than anywhere else..."

CREATIVITY AND HONING YOUR SENSES: This Post Might Give You ANXIETY!

@playitforward: "As humans we have amazing abilities with our senses. We can focus our vision on fine point text or open our eyes to an IMAX movie screen. We can be in the midst of construction noises, people shouting, airplanes flying overhead, cars honking, and yet fall asleep. We can cover our noses when something smells or if we taste something too strongly. How can we take the senses we have and hone them to benefit our creative workflow?..."

Why Do I Use Archival Paper? - Mr. Blinddraw Confessions

@mrblinddraw: "Archival paper is a tool like any other in the world. If you were to make something you like on a material that doesn't last very long, it would seem like it's almost not worth it. I want the longevity in the art I create to be at it's maximum potential. If someone asks me to paint them or commissions me, I want them to have something that will last. If it yellows right away or starts to break apart, what type of impression does that leave?.."

Vlog #4: At the Steem Accelerator Hub, STACH. Sept 16th 2017

@ejemai: "Its been a week since I did the Vlog which is supposed to be regular, but I have been super busy trying to get the Hub to completion. There are those little things that just come in to put paid to the work. Today's Vlog is just me putting 2 new users through and also getting them to tell you first hand how they got to know about Steemit and how they are doing generally..."

Super Heroes in Turkish Cinema #1 : Tarzan at Istanbul

@monomyth: "As a geek I say comic book adaptation movies are now quite popular. Watching a superhero movie does not make you a geek of course, or vice versa. But there is a fact that these kinds of films are penetrating our lives day by day, and a large part of us geeks seem to be very satisfied with this situation.Marvel and DC Comics are leading the field. It is really enjoyable watching the characters read in the past..."

Namaste! I’m a global-Indian urban designer, rethinking ways urban design firms operate

@sunjana: "Hello Steemians! My name is Sunjana Thirumala Sridhar. I am from India – yet I identify with countries and traditions from my own country and far beyond my country’s boundary. And that’s saying something, since India’s richness in diverse culture is epic. Be it language, traditions, festivities, art, clothing, daily lifestyle – ‘culture’ in its broader sense varies across India and is infinitely rich. 1652 spoken languages, a mind-boggling variety of cuisines and at least 80 major festivals celebrated through the year; to give you a smattering of an idea!..."

Steemit Communication Process & Advices for Minnows

@steeminator3000: "Well after the World War 2 and with the development of Mass Communication Devices , Obviously the popularity of Communication Sciences increased rapidly. Today I'm going to explain you main features of a social media according to communication Studies. Let me start with a basic communication Model..."

Well I want to do the most votes let me into the report

Creating content at the same time everyday (in case you write one post per day) helps earning brand image and it also allows the audience to respond at that time. So, they don't have to wait all day to respond to that specific post. A lot of Steemians wait for some specific posts for upvotes, the others wait for comments for the posts where they get rewarded well. Great post and it will help a lot. Good job @sndbox!

Hello my friend, can you help and upvote my post with my son, on 4-th it's her birthday and I want to give a little gift.

Thanks!

They deserved it, they are the best

Great Words to live by!!!!
