Art by @brandyb - an awesome minnow you should check out...
Minnow Adoptions are starting to take off around the site. I am hoping to take the project to the next step. A market place for human trafficking, Minnow Advertising. First though let's start with a Logo.
The logo should be fun, I tend to like blues, I would love for it to have a feeling of a growing minnow, but also somehow "caged" or "bowled"... :)
Let's see what you have... In 7 days when this post pays out I will be selecting a Logo the winner will be awarded 10 SBD . Feel free to make a post about your entry or upload it in the comments. Either way make sure I see the link.
If you have ideas for the logo, you can message me on discord.
Hello everyone! I would like to join the said contest and here is my entry
Please click here to see the post of this entry AdoptaMinnow - Adopt a Minnow - Make a logo contest. Here is my Entry
i like the concept, nice work
Thank you @edxserverus! :)
love this <3
just a suggestion... would it look even better if u magnify the eyes a little on the specific area where glasses are covering the eyes of the whale?
Wow! Thank you for that beautiful suggestion! Noted on this one. Will edit soon. Thank you again!
Why I’m leaving Steemit, what all minnows need to know:

Hi, my proposal for the logo
https://steemit.com/adoptaminnow/@edxserverus/adoptaminnow-logo-proposal-great-initiative-in-my-humble-opinion
Cute little minnow, It reminds me of when I was a smaller minnow and grew too fancy for my britches... I mean fishbowl!
I love the bowl and colors of this one!
https://steemit.com/design/@serkorkin/my-logo-for-adoptaminnow
wooow :)
Yes! :-)
Very cute minnow, I think she looks just like me!
I love this minnow... selections tomorrow.
Sometimes they say less is more. I did make two designs. The first is my favorite. It is fun and I think the font I found gives it a kind of whimsical and cartoonish look.
The second which is a png file (transparent) keeps everything within the circle. The font is a bit more professional (Arial) and includes to original (and in my opinion, the best) Steem Logo which is not subject to copyright as is the new STEEM Logo by SteemIt, Inc.

The little minnow swimming in the fin... adorable! Nicely done!
These are super cute!
This is Two logo First one without shadow :
Second one with shadow :
==>> Second One Looks better @whatsup :)
I like the creative thinking and the school of minnows! Excellent job putting multiple choices as well!
Really great! One of my Favs. You guys aren't making this easy
I) symbol of adoption with steem colors
II) a steem whale spraying steem to the adopted minnow (image of the minnow is copied from here)
I really enjoy your out of the box thinking! Nice job!
thanx :) these nice words helps me keep myself motivated :)
Really cute! I love both of them...
thank u very very much :)
i first thought to make simple animated gif logos. but i dont know if an animation would look good or not in a logo, as i am just an amateur. thanks for liking whatever i could create :)
@whatsup, here's my official entry to the #adoptaminnow logo contest. I've documented the meaning & concepts within this post. Cheers! https://steemit.com/adoptaminnow/@gomatthew/adopt-a-minnow-logo-contest
I love this & I love you! So while there might be some obvious bias on my part, all that aside. I know you have seen the project flourish and it is a great gift to me that you took the time to participate. This is a beautiful logo and I could easily see ALL of steemit agreeing with me.
This is great. Very professional and I love the concept.
Hello, this is my entry to contest!
https://steemit.com/adoptaminnow/@mightymicke/adoptaminnow-logo-contest-entry-by-mightymicke
Very creative! I like the minnow outgrowing the bowl!
Thanks! I am glad you like it.
This one is great. I love the color change from the teal to the blue!
Thanks! I decided to try to combine standard steemit blue color with new 'green' and it's good combination.
Hey @whatsup, This is good to know that you're planning to take #adoptaminnow initiative to the next level. I fully support you. I'm not a designer but I can give it a try. 10 sbd is a good reward and all the designers who follow @whatsup blog should participate in it.
Steem On!
I will try..thanks for this initiative..I suggest that the logo contains tow sides ....one contains many small minnows and the other a whale separated by the project "Minnows adoptions"..Means that we can be a whale if you will a part of us..
Sounds Interesting... Best of luck.
@whatsup You Want a Name in The Logo ? or Just Logo Without Any Name ?
Adoptaminnow, would be in the logo!
meaning the logo how we should make.
WOW! So many great submissions! I hope to see a couple more!!
I will love to leave my entry in this FUN contest @whatsup. Although I'm not a professional designer, but for sake of this FUN activity I will must give it a shot. All the best!
lol... the cross out of human trafficking :P
I need to know how to get signed up to adopt a minnow.

What happened here? Please respond or I will have to flag the rewards from this comment.
I tried guys. 😕 I tested it. Steemit just isn't the social network I thought it would be. I set out very motivated, made a bunch of quality posts, put weeks worth of work into it, so it was daunting to see that many posts (which are in some cases only a photo and two sentences) are earning $300-500 and my posts were only earning .01? The rewards system isn't fair as advertised. There is cheating going on, and to beg people to upvote? That's not a proper structure... It should be fun to post content, and I commented and reached out to the community over 262+ times, even reached out to people I know here and recieved little to no support. I felt I had to create a Minnow Support Network and still nothing. Until the rewards structure is fixed and not so easily manipulated - I’m leaving the site for now. So it’s fine. Flag or downvote the comment, take the rewards so they can be used elsewhere... at this point I don’t really care. Thanks for noticing. Best of luck to you and the community it was nice to meet you and Brandy. BTW: When a whale has the power to wipe out a weeks worth of work with a single down vote, that’s a problem too. I read a TON of posts on that yesterday and it was shocking to see how many people are suffering (on a social network?!) that a whale could write a simple “down for maintenance post” and earn over $1,500 (which he doesn’t need, because he’s a whale) but then I see Steemians pouring their hearts out in quality posts and then they feel bad when they only make 0.09 cents. So then they try the garbage post route, which results in the same. It doesn’t take long until they realize that everyone is worshiping whales and their votes... which is kind of a “culty” mindset. What will be the effect of this in the Community? To the mental health of everyone here...? Furthermore, the Whales are getting richer and the minnows are doing all the hard work posting quality content. Sound familiar? They essentially built the same trickle down economy that they claim to hate... Maybe I’m wrong, but it’s my observation and what I have read and seen happen. Quality content on sites like Reddit blow up there, I tested it too. I made a post that got front page on reddit, where here it made 0.9 cents. I don’t need the 0.9 cents, I need a fair system or at least to feel apart of the Community. Many minnows don’t. It seems groups of people stay locked tight and don’t let anyone in...even when it’s clear they are reaching out for support. That’s one thing I liked about @whatsup & #adoptaminnow (I think if the whales or ownership of steemit are serious about having this site survive, they should adopt more minnows) right now it’s pretty much minnows adopting minnows. 😂 Which is very sweet, but doesn’t fix the problem of the top 3% raping the reward pool and the rest of the minnows getting 0.9 cents when their content is obviously worth more. I personally believe in everyone here and know you all are worth more than what steemit or a whale may think. Your voice does matter. So to all the minnows out there that feel the same way, you can “follow me” and I’ll check back to see if improvements have been made. My second piece of advice for new minnows, just treat steemit like every other website. Don’t expect to get paid on posts, just write because you like to write, be passionate about what your topic is, and don’t get discouraged like I did when you see small rewards. Also, don’t put all your Eggs in 1 basket, have multiple social networks, speak to all of them and build your following. I’ve built up thousands of followers on other platforms doing so, and really wanted to bring that action here, but seeing what I have from the Community, just make me feel glad I didn’t advertise it to my current base. That could have done irreparable damage to my following. Again, thanks for listening, but for now, I’ve just lost my Steem...
Best of luck. It is what it is.
