Let's get started with some contests!
Ok so I've written about original content contests a few times here and here. Let's see how this goes.
Contest Goal:
Please create a unique ad in three banner sizes for Steemit with any message you feel will be effective to bring users to the platform
Size 1:
Size 2:
Size 3:
Keep in mind you may want to collaborate with others. Here is a post to help you think about messaging. You might have a good message and some concepts, but there are people here like @steemservices or @cass who may be available to help with designing or creating the ad and you can split rewards.
If you want to outsource you can also go to:
- Fiverr.com - Probably will cost $25-50 for decent quality, but you can search around for a deal
- Freelancer.com - Probably will cost around the same as Fiverr?
- Upwork.com - Probably at least $50-100? (Upwork also charges 10% too I think)
Rules:
- Create three different banners with the same theme and message with the following sizes:
300x250, 728x90, 160x600 (This article shows these are the most effective banner sizes for websites) - Reply to this post saying something like "I'll make a submission". Post your banner ads for vote between June 10th and June 15th (9PM Eastern Time, US)
- Please don't make any submissions before June 10th (9PM Eastern Time, US.) If you do I recommend the community downvote the submission.
- Please don't vote before June 15th (9PM Eastern Time, US), especially if you have a lot of STEEM power.
- If you have bots following you around, just reply with intent to make a submission and create a new reply with the actual submission between June 10th and June 14th.
The Winner is the Submission Reply with the Highest Vote Value!
(BTW I'll put 50% of the proceeds of this post towards the winner. I don't believe rewards for replies count towards a post do they? If they do I can put 75% of the proceeds towards the winner. I have to reread @steemship and like @nanzo-scoop mentioned I'll dig deeper into the white paper on July 4th. =P )
Ultimately the community and those with STEEM power will enforce any of the rules above. Let me know if the rules are clear or if anything else needs to be added. Thx.

I suggest adding some high res/SVG sources for the Steemit logo and perhaps font(s) used so people have a place to start from.
Edit: also your #2 and #3 images aren't loading for me. #1 loads though so I can't tell why.

I did not know if it was necessary to present it here or in a new post, this one is my contribution.

Great job! I like the animation... FYI spelling should be 'Comment' instead of 'Coment'
You're the only one who's submitted so far so you're in the lead!

Thank you! I had not realized, already I have corrected and changed and retouched it one of the banner in order that one sees better. Thank you again and you forgive for the mistake.

Sorry we set up the rules earlier so you have until 9pm ET today!
You should probably just create a submission anyways and post it directly to the forum .. I think good ads will get upvoted for a good amount ....

Last day for submissions .. 9PM ET is the deadline and then people can vote... I forgot to set the voting deadline so let's say June 18th at 9PM ET.

I think that for the voting you should create a post with all the presented banner and that the people vote the one that more they like seeing all.

That's a good idea, but since this is the last day and we only had a couple submissions I'll just split 75% of the post proceeds among both you and @pfunk instead of trying to get more people to vote... I think both of you guys did a great job!
