Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That's because they were able to connect experiences they've had and synthesize new things. - Steve Jobs

"NOT WELCOME'S"
out of the way!
If you are going to do any of the following:
Request follows and upvotes
Spam people
Comment with candy floss
Post candy floss
Be annoying in general
well, then you are NOT welcome

HOWEVER...
on the flip side of that coin...
if you have any of the following to offer:
Quality content
A genuine desire to interact with other Steemit bloggers
Are willing to support others
Are super sexy! (just kidding!) lol

Please, always provide the source of each image/photo being used.
Thank You
@steemcleaners if you hover over each and every image you will see that they are clickable to the original source. Please can i get some feedback in this regard as I have not had any issues linking in this manner up until now. I await your feedback.
Hot-linking isn't sourcing. It doesn't make the reader properly aware they are not your images. Since we look at this from a plagiarism angle proper citation is appreciated but not necessary.
For example:
source
Would be acceptable.

Thank you for the info.
Question: Being a designer by trade - the aesthetics of my posts are somewhat important to me, so don't really like the mess of having the word "source" under each and every picture...or in one rambling mess at the end of the post - it looks untidy.
Is it not an option for me to continue "hot linking" the images with a CLEAR statement on the blog post that ALL images sourced elsewhere are hot linked to their direct source? Could someone advise?
ANY assistance in this regard would be greatly appreciated.
@steemcleaners @dragonslayer109 @meesterboom @jerrybanfield @samstonehill @papa-pepper @steemit @bambam808
Many thanks

Hey there! Just dropping by. ^_^ I hope you are having a great day.
Thanks @kmulan :) You too!
Okay so my name made the list😘😘
honey you are AMAZEBALLS (as my son likes to say) lol :D
Sorry, but that's the ONLY I have, so ...
lol! Well played!
You have big energy - creativity is your other name @jaynie Steemit to the sky.
Thank you hon xxx and yes absolutely!!! Onward we go :)
You are my man @jaynie :)
I wish there was something like this for Artists on Steemit. Not bloggers but people creating original paintings/poetry etc..
Feels like there's zero support & it's killing my muse!
Anyway good luck with your blogger's circle and I feel a little better for having vented.
On Facebook theres a group called Steemit Artists. Have a look at them.
Thanks Lizelle, I'll check that out.
@rbennett there are specific channels on the Steemit Bloggers for art, poetry etc. So feel free to join :)
I totally agree that we need more members who value their own content.Most of my digital art has hours of work behind it and I imagine your blog posts do, too. Yet some folk post a selfie and then start begging for votes.It is refreshing to see serious bloggers, serious photographers, serious artists here, and I think we're in the majority!
Agreed! :)
Thanks for the mention :) You are doing amazing work here Jaynie :)
Thank you for the lovely compliment @himshweta It really does mean a lot to me to have you say that! Thank you, too - for your support lovely x
Thanks @jaynie for putting this together... The channel tune is okay too... a yes Vote from me... Goodnight dear.
cool beans @pangoli xxx
good jobb. Upvoted!
whoopah! thank you @palani :)
Lmfao thanks for the post. I loved those pictures.
Thank you @jaynie for including me on the list, I think you have a really nice group of people together, so lets all support each other as much as we can.
Absolutely @claudiaz :D
good job, i hope my name will make it next time.
My sincerest apologies @theheralds I did not leave you out intentionally :) I have edited and added you in.xxx

This whole post is annoying fluff
delete your comment or get a down vote... tick tock.... :)
threats re a legitimate comment ,, please go threaten other people , tick tock
I hated you post , seems I was right , hides a nasty hostile human behind it
what do you all think? because I just down voted this troll @vaerospace
bring vaero down please, he is simply acting like a kid now. Sheesh, so shameful.
yeah, agreed. Don't think he/she quite grasped the essence of the post... but yeah... moving along swiftly... I have better things to do with my time :)
