Just be careful though, the bitshares interface is a bit clunky, and if you change tabs, you have to refill everything on your transfer form again.
I kept double-checking, and somehow the first time I did it, I still managed to send BTS instead of WHALESHARE to the whaleshares account! So perhaps I should have looked it over 5x instead of 3x!
Oh, and ONE MORE THING... GET SOME BTS!!! You can easily get some by converting a few SBD to BTS via blocktrades. When I did it, the exchange rate was about on par with coinmarketcap. But otherwise, it will try and use 1 WHALESHARE as the transaction fee (potentially worth around 4 bucks), instead of using about 0.24 BTS (which is still sort of steep for a small transaction, but by comparison, that's currently only about 8 cents)!
Finally, also be careful with the bitshares app. Twice now I left it running for several hours on my Windows 10 PC, and both times it started completely maxing out ALL MY CPUs until I shut it down. If you don't notice it, it can really screw up some of the other things you're working on (not to mention overheat your PC), so just be aware of that as well!
Yes! Be very careful when sending. Double, triple, or as @alexpmorris mentioned, look it over 5x.
I recommended the app as it was the solution that best worked for me. I haven't noticed the spike in CPU usage. I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks for the heads up, and good luck in the contest!
