@skyochica came to me last night to ask if I would help find struggling users on SteemIt to encourage with a small tip of 5 steem. The intention is to find some people who are working hard on SteemIt, but maybe just haven't found their sweet spot yet. They are perhaps becoming frustrated and the tip is potentially just an act of encouragement. You can find sykochica's post about the initiative below.
I have received 25 Steem from sykochica and will be matching her contribution. So, that leads me to the point of this post. I have some ideas in mind, but I want you to help me. Please nominate someone for a tip in the comments below. Please include a link to one of their underpaid posts. I will review all accounts suggested for effort, time, and engaging articles. The article does not have to be engaging to me personally, but something I think someone wants to read.
sykochica's article below.
Are there rules? Not many, please nominate someone who you feel is struggling, who might need some encouragement.
Pretty simple right? I look forward to your ideas.
I don't ask this very often, but I would sure love it if you would resteem this.
*post update - I have also received 25 steem from @virtualgrowth and I will be spreading that around as well!
Not really worth saying but I feel that lots of users are going to nominate themselves. Seeing the hunger ? :)

My friend does professional model photography, and I encouraged him to share his work on Steemit. He only has around 35 followers, so his posts don't get many views/upvotes.

Thanks for the post! I don't need it, though I'm still below the thousand mark. But this is a great idea!
The reward system needs to be fixed a bit. I find the more I upvote, comment and post (despite being well received) I too often get 0.001 SP instead of what I used to get (50-100 dollars a day).
This is long and painful to a lot of people. Would love to see this change to some degree.
Either way, there's no doubt we're on the ground floor of the future of social media here. The untapped potential is incredible. But we definitely have to work to make it more user friendly and give more incentive to post and keep posting. :)
Cheers!

I don't want to join the nomination but I'd like to expose my project around Steem. It's a plugin that allows Steem to be accepted as one of the payment method options for WooCommerce (It's an ecommerce site plugin for WordPress).
You can follow the project at:
https://steemit.com/steem/@recrypto/woocommerce-steam-1-0-0-beta
You can also contribute to the public repository if your are a techie. We're still in beta and approximately 2 days from now, I'll be requesting this plugin to be added to WordPress Plugin Repository.

@recrypto is there any way to make a stand-alone plug-in for Wordpess? WooCommerce (as far as I understand) takes credit card information before passing the customer off to the payment gateway. This means the shop owner could be liable for any security breach where credit card information is stolen. In order to avoid that situation, many small entrepreneurs choose to use Simple PayPal Shopping Cart, where the customer is passed off to PayPal and THEY collect the credit card information. If these smaller businesses could trade directly in Steem, I think it would be a huge plus.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

@happyme WooCommerce doesn't work that way. Once a customer checks out, the customer is presented with list of accepted payment methods set by the shop owner.
If you choose Paypal for example, you will be redirected to Paypal landing page for paying your order.
If you choose Steem as payment method, you will be redirected to the internal WooCommerce Order page with the payee, amount, and memo details so you can send your transfer.
You are NOT asked NOR required to input your credit card information BEFORE choosing a payment method as that would be absurd. ;)

Yes, I'll be looking at different e-commerce platforms that is built in PHP programming language. Once I finished a stable version and release this on WordPress Plugin Repository, I'll move on creating another extension for other e-commerce platforms.

I'm trying to learn how to do 3D modelling and animation now. But then I got distracted by Steemit.com and have been learning about that and attempting to build a following. My neighbour wants me to rebuild her fence and lift up her 2-story shed to repair the rot on one or 2 walls of the shed. Plus a whole pile more jobs that have been waiting for me to get to for the past few years. There just aren't enough hours in a day (or week for that matter) for me to manage to learn everything!

@happyme As for credit card information as payment method, WooCommerce has a tokenize mechanism that handles this for added security measures when dealing with this type of sensitive information.
