RE: Steemit Minnows, Dolphins & Whales Status Icons/Badges

Thanks for your comments, unfortunately I've spent a lot of work in my UI prototype mockup without much success (plenty of votes which is amazing but with no whale votes my effort is futile ). I'm not contributing any more of my time for now. I see 1 minute videos or copy & paste posts getting $2-3k only because a whale votes and that's just not fair. If after 30 minutes no whale (and there are very few...) upvotes your post you are doomed. Thank you very much for your kind comments though, I know all the upvotes I had appreciate how hard I worked and I know they wished to contribute more.

I really appreciate your words of encouragement, it's very hard for many of us creating what we feel it's good content (I know I worked all week on the UI mockup, I think people don't even understand how much work it involves) just to see it go almost unnoticed or unappreciated. Sadly that's because of the huge power whales have in my opinion. I really don't post for them at all but the reality is that if you don't get one single upvote from one of them (there are 20-30 of them max) you won't succeed.

Thanks again for your support, I'm following you, hopefully they implement this feature soon.

@moonjelly Don't share for the whales. Share for yourself and the community you will find by reaching out. I am now a fan and will be looking for your posts in the future. Stay true.
