The Daily Sneak 20 February 2018 - with guest curator @ecoinstant

in #curation6 years ago

Welcome to The Daily Sneak!!!

Come for the crypto, stay for the community!

You can earn up to 5 SBD per accepted submission for guest curating The Daily Sneak. Submission requirements are published at the bottom of each edition of The Daily Sneak.

Today's guest curation is provided by @ecoinstant. @ecoinstant is a person just like you, who likes to think that his small daily actions might make a small daily positive impact on the world. We are always thrilled to see the quality selections that he finds for us!



Big Bird Lost (Carnivorous Parrots, Pt. II)

Let's remember how important biodiversity is to our world! @jozefkrichards shares with us his passion for New Zealand bird species and their conservation. Part 1 is a very interesting read as well!


Arachnophobic? Better not read this post. Birdwatching in Suriname 2018 / episode 4

Birds are some of the most flexible species around the world. @gardenbsquared is back with his birding update, this time has some interested local birds going out for lunch!


TAME YOUR PIGEON!!!

Have you ever trained a pidgeon to respond to your call? @ashraful1998 wants to let us know that it is possible, and they will show us how! I want to see follow up articles by a few people who will try this!


STROLLING AT JURONG BIRDS PARK SINGAPORE

There are parks around the world where you can enter to see some pretty amazing things when it comes to animals. Jurong Birds Park looks and sounds like an incredible experience, one that @ladyrai would like to share with us.


My Birdseed Brings All the Birds to the Yard: Steamy Photo-Shoot with Gang of Five Doves

A back yard photoshoot with local pigeons! @youngoldengurrl is sharing with us some of her last photo-ops from winter now that spring is warming up (I personally don't trust February that much); let us be inspired to take our own nature photography!



Conclusion

I loved the birding theme! I wish I'd spotted this submission two days ago when @ecoinstant first submitted it. That was my wife's birthday, and she loves birds! Stop by these great posts and let the content creators know how awesome their work is. For submitting these selections and commentary, @ecoinstant earns 5 SBD today.

That's almost $25 USD!!

Each of these highlighted articles receives full upvotes and resteems from @sneakyninja. As an added bonus, @sneakyninja sponsors featured writers for Steem Basic Income!

Submission Requirements

  1. You can choose from 2 to 5 articles for your entry. Submissions with only one selected article will be ignored.
  2. All articles chosen for curation need to have been published within the last 5 days before your entry. It may take time for me to publish your curation, and curated articles need to be within the reward window when your submission is published.
  3. You cannot submit your own post for curation. Selections from nsfw will not be accepted.
  4. Selected posts should have less than $50 in total rewards and have not previously been curated by The Daily Sneak.
  5. We try to spread the love around, so while selections from authors that have been highlighted before are welcome, they might not be included if the author's last inclusion was recent. Similarly, if you include two articles from the same author in one submission, we will typically highlight only one of the two.
  6. Be sure to include your personal bio for me to introduce you to readers, and make sure that each selection has commentary. This can be just a few sentences about why you think the selection is worth our attention, or what is great about it - something that will make people want to click through the headline and check out the actual article. English is preferred, but other languages will be considered as long as English translation is included.
  7. Please use this web form to submit your entry. https://goo.gl/forms/VH2MGIMEgqZmd9ef1
  8. Including image links to the source article is not required (and we prefer to leave some mystery if photography is highlighted and the article has only one photo.) However, we like to include images in The Daily Sneak, and not including any image links may decrease the likelihood of your submissions being published.

If you include more than 2 articles in your submission and not all are approved for publication, your submission may still be published into an edition of The Daily Sneak, as long as at least 2 articles are approved. This could happen for several different reasons. If you are unsure why an article was cut, please review the submission guidelines again. If you are still unsure, feel free to ask politely why it was cut.

Submission Reward

A brief biography of each guest curator will be included in the edition that uses their submission. In addition, each guest curator will receive 1 SBD for each article from their submission that is highlighted in The Daily Sneak. That's up to 5 SBD for each accepted submission!

Right now @sneakyninja's upvote is not worth as much as we are paying for guest curation. Why do we pay so much for guest curation? We believe that quality curation is very important to Steem. Paying our curators well encourages them to spend more time reviewing content and picking out the best pieces!

Thanks.
I read through it.
Does this imply that any one can submit entries even if the person is not a curator. Maybe a newbie Like me and is it possible for me to include my own posts?

Anyone can submit entries.

Point 3:

You cannot submit your own post for curation.

For the best chance of having your submission actually published, I would recommend reading the guidelines two or three times.

Very interesting information and offers.
