Hi @happyme,
First of all, thank you for your participation.
You have made a delegation of 2500SP which currently gives you an upvote weight of 16.4% which at the current STEEM price gives you $0.677 upvotes on your content.
You can verify on https://www.steemnow.com/upvotecalc.html that at 2500SP a single of your own upvote would be worth $0.07 STU (actually $0.0677 STU rounded up). So SmartVote effectively upvoted you at 2500 SP x 10. As price of STEEM fluctuate, the actual value in STU will also change.
As for the footer banner, we are adding 20% of your current upvote weight. So 16.4% + 20% = 19.68%. The current system can only add those 20% to the post currently voted on. We will bring this topic up for internal discussion.
Hello @smartvote.
Thank-you for your response. I understand the first part and don't have an issue with the amount of up-vote without the bonus. It is the bonus that I am questioning. If the bonus expires at the end of this month and it takes 5 days just for the bonus to begin to show up, then I'm not going to get very many bonus credits, am I ?
Are you intending to extend that bonus period at all? If not, and in any case, I think it is only fair that the bonus is paid out for as many days AFTER the expiry of the promotion as it took for the bonus to kick in.
I'm looking forward to growing together.
The bonus was implemented since the start of the project, 3 months ago, just like any promotional offer it has an expiry time so the earlier you join the more you benefit from it.
You could also have edited your older posts and add the banners to them as still get the bonus on those. You still can do so for you current unvoted posts.
There is actually a plan to extend the end of the bonus period until Dec 31st.
We have also upvoted your current comment with 10% which should be more than the 5 missed bonus.
