Welcome to the 18th Edition of the Daily Qurator. Below you will find some awesome members of @qurator that worked hard to post some good quality content for all you awesome Steemians to enjoy!

The @qurator project was created to help give Steemians some extra exposure and awesome upvotes currently worth around $0.12 - $0.40!

Note: some of you have been curated twice since the start of the daily qurator and some have been curated only once. As the daily qurator is gaining fame with every passing day, many new steemians are asking/will ask to join us. So, expect to see posts from new users for now. When the opportunity arises, posts from older users will be curated once again

Domingo - Sunday / Mydailypost

It's Sunday and the day was beautiful and sunny. So our friend @sol25 took the chance to have a walk and admire nature's beauty through her eyes as well as the eyes of the camera... Luckily, that was before she got a natural shower from the high heaven falling on her :D

Thank you @sol25 for sharing the beauty of nature as you see it with us, I hope the shower was not too bad though ;D .

@thepaganwarrior	art

The darkest night

Although I am not a fan of dark art, I loved this drawing by @thepaganwarrior and the wisdom that comes with it

"Even in the darkest night, let your heart guide you by its brightest light..."

Let's all welcome @thepaganwarrior to our @qurator group and if you are a dark art fan, remember to pass by @thepaganwarrior's page to enjoy the art works posted there.

@bigpanda	fiction

Black Oak Sword, Chapter 5

A flash fiction writer, @bigpanda has already written 10 parts in 4 chapters, in addition to this chapter, of his novel and posted them for all steemians to read. This full novel will probably contain 40 chapter or more.

Thank you @bigpanda for sharing your novel with us. Let's all applaud @bigpanda for his talent in writing and appreciate his efforts by reading and voting his chapters. Welcome @bigpanda, we are happy that you are part of our @qurator group.

A Quick Journal-y Post

As you all know, our journey on steemit can be challenging, intimidating and disheartening most of the times. If we add to that a writer's block, a feeling of neglect and a bit of salt and pepper, we will end up having a good recipe for a disaster to justify giving up altogether

Our @qurator friend, @dbzfan4awhile is having these few ingredients cooking in his mind for the past few weeks. However, I am glad that before the disaster is done cooking, @dbzfan4awhile is shouting to us for support and encouragement.

His heart-felt shouts are asking us "Would you be interested in me? and my life?", "Would you be interested to read my posts even if they were not creative writing, like fiction, poems and fantasy?", "Please, tell me not to give up and leave"

What are we going to answer with?

In one voice, let's all tell @dbzfan4awhile that we will be interested in anything he writes as long as it comes from his heart. Let's tell him that we want to know more about him and want to tell him more about us. Let's tell him, we are all here together, to support each other and grow together. So don't give up and leave just yet ;D.

My daughters dog is missing

Are you living in Ocala Florida? or you know someone living there? or maybe a friend or a relative of yours know someone living there?

The world is too small now because we are all connected by strong threads of communication and love through the invisible universal ether.

Our friend @deadgrlsuppastar is calling for our help to find her daughter's dog (the picture above). Let's all help @deadgrlsuppastar' daughter to find her loyal friend "Rogue"

To every Qurator and Steemian, if you can help @deadgrlsuppastar by sharing "Rouge's" picture with your friends and family on social media, I am sure she, her daughter and "Rogue" will be all thankful to you

News

Streemian Trail Account is here!

You may have noticed that your upvotes from @qurator packed a little bigger punch! @gingerninja and @scrooger are now trailing the @qurator account and will be sending you some extra upvotes from our side as well. It's not much but every upvote counts!

You can also follow the trail and send upvotes to fellow Qurator members when @qurator upvotes them. To set up a Streemian account only takes a few minutes and is a great way to earn some extra curation.

You can follow this GUIDE to set up your Streemian account.

After setting up your account you can follow this trail on Streemian:

https://streemian.com/profile/curationtrail/trailing/817

We suggest NOT following the trail at 100% since we do not want to drain too much of your precious voting power. Play around with your percentage and if you see your voting power being drained too much you can simply lower your % in Streemian. If you have a lot of voting power to spare you can consider a larger %.

If you struggle or have questions come visit our #support channel on Discord.

Qurator will be increasing its registration fee

Qurator is growing really fast and we want to keep supporting our members and investors with worthwhile upvotes.
After we hit 100 members the Registration Fee will be bumped up to 2 SBD/STEEM.

We currently have 96 members.

Tomorrow's Resteem will go to @eco-alex

More info about Qurator

Qurator will be a service that helps users who spent their blood, sweat and tears on content creation to get noticed and rewarded for their efforts. Steemit has seen some incredible growth in the last few months and even though this is amazing for the platform, it might make it harder for the new Steemians to get noticed. With daily posts hovering in the 100 000's you can imagine how hard it is to get the attention you deserve for all your hard work!

That's where @qurator comes in. We want to help those who work really hard but still see little to no rewards on their posts.

What exactly does @qurator do?

We will focus on users who post quality content. Each day 5 members will be selected and their posts will be featured in the Daily Qurator.
Once a day we will resteem a high-quality post from one of our members.
Members will get an upvote from @qurator once a day. We are limiting upvotes to once a day because we want to keep it fair for all the members.
More features and give aways will follow as @qurator grows.

How do you become a member?

We want to give back to the community, but this also means we need some support from the community. We will charge a once off fee of 1 Steem/SBD to register as a @qurator member. You can enter your name or the name of a friend you would like to join @qurator in the memo field. This will give you a lifetime upvote membership. We do however reserve the right to decline certain accounts if we feel they do not contribute to posting good quality content or simply find too much plagiarism or spam posts. We have declined members before, we only support original content. We also offered tier voting weights for investors and upvoters of The Daily Qurator.

You can contact @scrooger or @gingerninja on Discord or Steemit.chat and request a review. Once reviewed we will let you know if you qualify to become a member. Afterwards simply transfer the registration fee to the @qurator account and you are all set up. We might not respond right away as we are only human and also need some sleep every now and then. Rest assured the bot sending you sweet upvotes will never sleep! We also have an awesome Discord channel that will spring to life once all you awesome members join. The Discord link will be sent after registration.

We worked out our voting weights to ensure we always stay very close or above 80% Voting Power. According to the number of members there will always be a basic voting weight.

Example 1: With 10 members each member gets a 100% upvote.
Example 2: With 20 members each member gets a 50% upvote.

Using the base upvote weight we can have Tiered Upvote Weights for investors of @qurator. Because the investors help @qurator grow bigger, the base upvote weight goes down and the investors gets bigger upvote weights. This way even the non-investors still benefit since the overall Steem Power of @qurator increases.

There are 3 ways you can become an investor in @qurator.

Upvote The Daily Qurator post each day. This can easily be automated by using Steemvoter, follow this guide to set up Steemvoter.

Send a certain amount of Steem (values below) to @minnowbooster with 4 qurator as you memo. This will lease SP for @qurator and give you access to a Tiered Status Upvote.

Delegate Steem Power to @qurator. (We can help with that, simply visit sp delegation support in our Discord channel.)

TIER	Requirements	Upvote Weight
	Basic 1 STEEM/SBD registration fee. Basic upvote for life from @qurator.	Basic Upvote Weight
	Delegate 100SP to @qurator or 4 Steem sponsored lease = Tier 1 for 28 days or Upvote The Daily Qurator 4+ times a week	X1.5 Basic Vote Weight
	Delegate 200SP to Qurator or 6 Steem sponsored lease = Tier 2 for 28 days or Upvote The Daily Qurator 7 times a week	X2 Basic Vote Weight
	8 Steem sponsored lease = Tier 3 for 28 days or Delegate 300SP to @qurator	X2.5 Basic Vote Weight
	10 Steem sponsored lease = Tier 4 for 28 days or Delegate 400SP to @qurator	X3 Basic Vote Weight
	12 Steem sponsored lease = Tier 5 for 28 days or Delegate 500SP+ to @qurator	X3.5 Basic Vote Weight

Please note: For The Daily Qurator upvote related Tiers, we check the upvotes on posts once a week (Every Sunday) and adjust the Tiers accordingly

After reviewing the Tiers you can decide how you would like to jump up in tiers or invest. @gingerninja and @scrooger are available on Discord for any assistance or questions or you can comment on this post if you have any questions/concerns.

All the members can see their Tier Status once a week it will be posted in a separate post each Monday. Rest assured as investors and members go up or down in tiers their voting weights will be adjusted at the end of each day.

Help us, help you.

All post payouts and registration fees will go towards growing the @qurator account. We believe in sharing our power and not pocketing it for ourselves. Great posts need to be noticed and we want to help with that.

Your Quality Content Curator

Oh no, dear don't apologize. Steemit has many learning curves and each day there is something new to learn.

The voting trail is basically a mechanism that copies all the upvotes @qurator makes.

If you follow the @qurator trail at 100% and Q votes at 14% then you will also vote at 14% for the same posts.

Follow the trail at 50% and @qurator votes votes at 14% you will vote at 7%

Streemian is used to copy votes of other accounts.

Steemvoter is used to send votes to certain accounts.

We implemented the Streemian trail so Q members can support other Q members. Now if Q upvotes your post there are several other members also upvoting your post because they are on the @qurator streemian trail.

Hope this all makes sense =)

The Daily Qurator #18 - Streemian update - Currently Upvoting at $0.12 - $0.40
