Daily Dose of Sultnpapper 07/21/18> have you ever noticed “Max Accepted Payout $100,000.00”? Or did you notice today is SBI Saturday at the Daily Dose?

@sultnpapper just seems like an older family member that you love to sit around listening. A frank, speak-your-mind type of guy. This post is very much in style, with more questions than answers, and a whole bunch of opinions and suggestions thrown in!

The Imperial Palace Of Tokyo Japan

The world is filled with such beautiful places, and even though we continue to take in as much as we can every day, it is likely we won't get to see it all in our lifetimes. Thats where Steem comes in, where users can share their pictures and experiences from around the globe. Here, @exploretraveler does an incredible job introducing us to the majest of Japan's Imperial Palace.

Take a Walk With Me and See What I See

Everybody does different things, that's what makes this community so special. One of my favorite tags to check out is the #walkwithme, where anybody, at any time, can share a walk through photographs. Today @bluelightbandit had an interesting summer stroll, and its worth a look.

DO YOU SEE THE CLOUD OR THE SILVER LINING?

Beauty comes in many forms. Nature has its own way of being beautiful, and humans do too. @buckaroo shows us that beauty comes from hope, it comes from change, and above all, it comes from gratitude.

Conclusion

Our longest running guest curator, @ecoinstant is back with another great group of selections. ! For submitting these excellent articles and commentary, @ecoinstant earns 5 SBD.

Submission Requirements

On to the submission requirements for The Daily Sneak:

1. You can choose from 2 to 5 articles for your entry. Submissions with only one selected article will be ignored.
2. All articles chosen for curation need to have been published within the last 5 days before your entry. It may take time for me to publish your curation, and curated articles need to be within the reward window when your submission is published.
3. You cannot submit your own post for curation. Selections from nsfw will not be accepted. We also check for plagiarism and only highlight original content.
4. Selected posts should have less than $50 in total rewards and have not previously been curated by The Daily Sneak.
5. We try to spread the love around, so while selections from authors that have been highlighted before are welcome, they might not be included if the author's last inclusion was recent. Similarly, if you include two articles from the same author in one submission, we will typically highlight only one of the two.
6. Be sure to include your personal bio for me to introduce you to readers, and make sure that each selection has commentary. This can be just a few sentences about why you think the selection is worth our attention, or what is great about it - something that will make people want to click through the headline and check out the actual article. English is preferred, but other languages will be considered as long as English translation is included.
7. Please use this web form to submit your entry. https://goo.gl/forms/VH2MGIMEgqZmd9ef1
8. Including image links to the source article is not required (and we prefer to leave some mystery if photography is highlighted and the article has only one photo.) However, we like to include images in The Daily Sneak, and not including any image links may decrease the likelihood of your submissions being published.

If you include more than 2 articles in your submission and not all are approved for publication, your submission may still be published into an edition of The Daily Sneak, as long as at least 2 articles are approved. This could happen for several different reasons. If you are unsure why an article was cut, please review the submission guidelines again. If you are still unsure, feel free to ask politely why it was cut.

Submission Reward

A brief biography of each guest curator will be included in the edition that uses their submission. In addition, each guest curator will receive 1 SBD for each article from their submission that is highlighted in The Daily Sneak. That's up to 5 SBD for each accepted submission!

Right now @thedailysneak's upvote is not worth as much as we are paying for guest curation. Why do we pay so much for guest curation? We believe that quality curation is very important to Steem. Paying our curators well encourages them to spend more time reviewing content and picking out the best pieces!
