Am I wasting my time???
NO!!! To me steemit is a lot of things, I think for a lot of people on steemit it is a lot of things. People poor a lot of heart into their creations, whether it is a Photograph, a story, a story with photographs, a painting, a piece of digital art. We are a visually oriented species. We need to see, and seeing a beautiful piece of art, whether it is visual or in written form we can not help but be moved by it.
Eye Candy is what makes the world go round. Do I really want to read a book that has a half eaten moldy gross looking hamburger as the cover? Well, maybe, but the art sometimes sells the book, or the story. So no you are not wasting your time by bringing something visually pleasing to your followers/fans.
Thank you for your positive words. They are massively appreciated!
It's good to hear this every now and then. My partner thinks I am sitting in here 'playing on facebook' but one day she will get it!
