I need so much help getting my bearings back. I was a Steemit user for years and unfortunately had to take a couple year leave for personal reasons. When i returned everything changed and i forgot how to make my posts like i used to, forgot markdown, cant find any communities i should be in or even find my associates from steemit.
I need some direction so bad please....
Hi friend;
I hear your struggle through your words. I've taken a look at your most recent posts and see that you are a graphic artist. Very cool! This is certainly a popular medium on Hive.
A few tips...
Don't post in all caps. Your posts don't need to be fancy, but they should be neat and clear. I would recommend that you use Peak.d or ecency.com to post with as both offer markdown through their platform. It's a lot easier than trying to memorize code.
Gems is a great community; I would continue to post there. I'd also look at Sketchbook as there are many other graphic artists posting there. In addition to offering services, I'd simply post about the things you're working on. Make sure to add descriptions and talk about the processes you're using. 300-500 words with pictures is a good start.
You might consider using Canva templates to enhance the quality of your posts. There are a lot of free templates available for use.
Post daily, don't spam people, and reply and Upvote any comments you receive. People enjoy a friendly engagement and will appreciate your effort. As an artist, you would do well to support other artists you have something in common with. They will likely do the same for you.
I hope this helps!
Cheers!
