Doing A Sign for Your Photo Verifiction - Never Too Late / 為您的照片驗證簽署 - 永遠不要太晚

Dear Steemit Friends,

This is my 10th day here in Steemit and this past week has been a learning curve. I did a first post on Steemit with the title: My First Day at Steemit..Hello from Hong Kong.  

I spent a lot of time writing that first post introducing myself - well it was really "My First Day" as the post says but I failed to put in proper introduction with photo verification for the Steemit Community which I only discovered a couple of days ago.

The introduction verification needs the following:

• a photo of you holding a sign
• the sign includes your Hive account@username and date

So this morning, I decided to do a steemit sign.  

Here are the reasons for doing this photo verification with a GOOD steemit sign:

• We spend a lot of time writing good quality posts and people need to know we are real
• This is a social media platform in real time so it is good to put a date there, or even time
• This is almost like our own website where we share life, values and content to our readers
• The sign confirms you are real in real time
• So for the photo, don't go to photoshop and do mock up.  Just leave it as it is and upload as you would for your LinkedIn profile.

Tips  for #steemit-newbies: Spend some time creating a nice Steemit verification sign.  It is worth it.

1.  Use these 3 pens to do make an artistic sign.  

You really can't be lazy and do a  quick scribbling job.  Nobody wants to look at it.  Remember, this is your blog website so spend some time creating a good sign for people to see.

My hubby is an architect and drawer.  

This morning he created this sign with these 3 pens.  

1. A blue felt pen marker 
2. A blue roller pen
3. A water brush

2.  Choose  Blue color -  Follow the color scheme of Steemit Platform.

3.  Make the sign artistic by using a water brush.   This creates a shadow effect.

We created a short video clip for you to see how easily the artwork can be done:

You can control the water flow to the brush nib to make the whole thing look artistic.

Voila!  A beautiful sign to greet all the other Steemians.
