My pleasure, when I first joined I participated in a lot contests.
In the end I actually used part rewards to finance my first dragon art contest ( this was already 7 months ago xD )
The contests are a really fun and sweet way to meet so many cool Steemians and to motivate the people to not give up posting even when they aren't getting many upvotes ^^

Also motivating and rewarding quality content is a win win for everyone! :D
