Term: Chop
Definition: An impression made by an
artist's or another person's seal, traditionally used as a kind of signature in the Far East. These seals have usually been made in square, circular and oval shapes, their impression surfaces carved to produce either a red (positive) or white (negative) mark.Examples:Attributed to Han Gan (Chinese, active 742-756), Night-Shining White, T'ang dynasty, 8th century, ink on paper, 12 1/8 x 13 3/8 inches (30.8 x 34 cm), Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY. This is one of the most revered horse paintings in Chinese art. This short scroll displays a formidable provenance in the form of chops of its former owners. See equine art.Also see Chinese art and Japanese art.
Art Word of the Day
Every day I make an attempt to add a little bit more art knowledge to the Internet, one word at a time. Realizing there aren’t many comprehensive and complete online art dictionaries, I set out on a mission to compile my own.

Download the Brave Browser and get $5 in the cryptocurrency BAT!!
The Brave Browser pays you in BAT (Basic Attention Token) to allow them to display their ads, which you can then use the BAT you earn to tip content creators or just exchange for another crypto. I'm making about $15 a month just from the ads, which are very non-intrusive, and all while simply using the Internet as I normally would. Brave comes with a built in script blocker and ad blocker so it's also very fast and very safe. I opened Firefox the other day and regretfully remembered what a monster it is on resources.
If you download and use Brave as your Internet browser using this link we both get $5 in BAT!!

I've seen it for years. Thought it was sometimes a tad spammy, but generally inoffensive, and sometimes interesting. If you haven't been buying votes, I see no cause for flags.

You're not paying for promotion, you're paying for a vote. Some bots arebworse than others, but I suspect a significant factor in the plummeting price of steem has been bid bot abusers and bid bot operators selling off their profits for Bitcoin and flooding the market with liquid STEEM. I think one of the consequences for that has been an extreme backlash against bidbots in general and their users now that #newsteem is here.
It isn't a sin to use your STEEM as you see fit, but it can be counterproductive, and if you're getting downvoted for posts that are 100% organic curation, that is certainly not cool.
