Hello @karokarnow! This is @traciyork from the @ocd (Original Content Decentralized) curation team. We noticed you shared your first post here on Hive and introduced yourself to the community - congratulations and welcome!
I took a peek at your Instagram - you have some amazing photography! However, to confirm your identity, could you mention Hive somewhere on your IG bio (or even on your Facebook profile) then drop a link to it here? That way the community will know this is really you, and not someone trying to profit off your awesome talent. You can delete it afterwards, of course. Thanks!
Speaking of community, we have many different ones here on the blockchain, devoted to all kinds of interests. Here's a link so you can check them all out - Hive Communities. I think you'll enjoy these two photo communities to start off with -
Also, as Hive can sometimes be quite confusing, the newly launched Newbies Guide is a growing repository of useful and easy to understand posts about how the Hive ecosystem works.
Please be aware that Hive is a bit different from other social media platforms since you are monetizing your blog, so it is important not to include content that you don't own without sources (and it shouldn't exceed 50% of the post). For more information, check this post - Why and How People Abuse and Plagiarise by hivewatchers.
If you have questions, feel free to hop into the OCD Discord server and we'll do our best to answer them, and again welcome to Hive!
