You got SNEKKED! Curation Friday 02-23-2018
Welcome to the you got snekked project!
Friday 02-23-2018
You got Snekked is a curation project created by @poeticsnake to bring more visibility to the users on the platform. We look for amazing content(undervalued) in different tag sections and give them a 100% upvote next to promoting their posts in the posts we share on Monday and Friday. We aim to share mostly undervalued posts, but we also believe that everybody deserves visibility! So, it might happen that a post is shared with a high value already because we believe the post is simply amazing and deserves to be shared.
Here are the wonderful posts we found for this issue for You Got Snekked.

Meet @sulev
**How different things can look during all the seasons in a year! @sulev shows us a few amazing shots of hay in Winter! When I look at those pictures I feel like I am walking in a dream. There is some hidden magic in every shot! For me personally Winter is one of the most amazing seasons we have! Something happens when the world gets covered in a blanket of snow! **

Meet @occupywallets
Where to start? This guy is as talented as he is clever as he is hilarious. He is well written. While his mock ad art is funny, it also points to a lot of societal problems (but not always!). I've been watching @occupywallets since we met, and am continually impressed by the amount of cool art he does. I get chuckles from nearly everything he does, and I really think that the medium of comedy is a great way to open up dialogue about not so comfortable issues. Plus, he's also been making Steem/MSP/Blockchain related ad art as well! Go peruse his blog, you won't be disappointed!
DOOMSDAY SALE!!! (Everything Must Go!!)
Meet @chrisjayl
Calling all anime nuts! We all love a good piece of art, and especially when it includes a step by step process! You're going to want to take notes from this artist! Just look at that shading and color. I am terrible at drawing, and these process posts make it look so easy! This is a character from an anime called Hunter x Hunter, and his name is Isaac Netero. I have never heard of this anime before, but the job he did on Mr. Netero here is exceptional. @chrisjayl also provides some back story on the character for anyone interested in getting into a new anime! Go show him some love.

Meet @mrbloom
After being six weeks on the platform @mrbloom shared this post to tell us how he is feeling about Steemit. While he is, overall, positive, there are a few things he wants to address in his post! The negative side of this online world we are spending a lot of our time. Being new on Steemit can be very hard, a real struggle for some but the message @mrbloom wants to give us all is to stay positive and know that the hard work you do now will pay off in the future!

Poetry
Meet @zuse0
This post, written by @zuse0 is touching and deep. She is sharing poetry but also the reason why she wrote this poem. It's touching and made me realise so many things at the same time. Words.... They can do a lot when you open your eyes and mind to really read them.

Meet @geke
There are poems you have to read, to know the words and to find the meaning in your own heart! Trail your fingers over each letter and let them enter your mind, push them towards the soul and heart and let them settle.... The answer will come when you reach the last word! This poem written by @geke is one of those poems! Marvelous work!

Music (Curator @falseyedols)
Meet @infamousit
Time to relax and space out, folks, because that's what you'll want to do after listening to this gem. @infamousit is an exceptional producer, and this song is proof. It's got a really mellow break beat, accompanied by some ambient, coffee shop- synth. To top it all off, a friend of his who plays a mean guitar adds some melodic riffs and nice subtle flourishes. He also explains one of my favorite aspects of collaborating with other artists. You never know what they're going to make, and because of this, you get a lot of "beautiful accidents" that add to the uniqueness of the art. Keep this producer on your radar, Steemians!

Come and meet this amazing couple from San Diego, California but they consider the world as their playground. They were brought together by the shared love for traveling, exploring new cultures and trying out new cuisines! They have been married for more than a year now, and they are looking forward to meeting other Steemians!
Introduceyourself : A glimpse of what to come! We are Carmela and Earl- the traveling foodies.
Meet@vegabonderz
Come and meet Žanand Adrijan, a vegan couple from Slovenia. They like to travel a lot and love to cook delicious vegan foods! The fact that they love food becomes clear the moment you scroll through their post! Nom nom nom are the only words that come to mind when I look at the pictures they share! Come and meet this wonderful couple and say hello!
Hi there, new Steemit friends! :)
Meet @mandalagems
@mandalagems starts with a speed date introduction to tell us who she is! Her name is Eva, and she is here on the platform to do some magic! She is an artist, crypto-enthusiast, bibliophile, yogi, ethnobotanist, gardener, and wanderluster who finds herself lost in other countries seeking treasures of exotic cultures. In her post, she shares a few of the art she made in the past! Including some amazing colorful prints for clothing she sells! Come and say hello to this bright new Steemian!

You guys are really doing great job by promoting steemit community
Thanks again for introducing the nice steemians here. It gives us an opportunity to meet new smart people all around the world.
Thank you for including my poem. I'm anxious to read/see these other curated works of art!
I Loved your poem!
This verse is my favourite, as it conjures up images of old derelict houses frozen in time, which I have a passion for.
'and if the corners of the room
hide the dusty strands of hanging silk
at odd angles, the work
of the curling legs of a long-dead spider,
hardened in its arching against the white wall
now grey with shadow—
You have a real talent for poetry and I salute you!
Thanks for sharing
@mrbloom
Brilliant work @poeticsnake
You are championing some great content on steemit which sometimes doesn't get the exposure and respect it deserves.
Thanks for including my little rant! I'm really not worthy!
