Welcome to the 157th Daily Edition of the Daily Qurator. Below you will find some awesome members of @qurator that worked hard to post some good quality content for all you awesome Steemians to enjoy!
The @qurator project was created to help give Steemians some extra exposure and awesome upvotes currently worth around $0.13 - $1.24!

How We Lived In This Off-Grid Barn For A Year While Building Our Home
Solar power, captured rainwater and a wood stove is how we lived last year while building our forever home. I wrote about our leaving the corporate world to live internationally before moving back to a farm in the Virginia Appalachians previously... Now I want to show you what it was like living in a barn/shed for a year with temps ranging from -5 F to 95 F
Take a picture journey along with @qberry as he shows you how he and his wife turned a barn into living quarters for a year. It has all the comforts of home and his wife added some special touches to make the barn a home.

In The Kitchen With Kat
Today being a typical day, I taught my fifth grader how to multiply mixed numbers whilst also making pie filling. It continued as I reviewed intensively and reflexively used compound pronouns with my daughter, as in between sentence and answer checks I whipped up some strawberry blueberry jam with some leftover berries
From her yoga workout to making a berry pie; all the while teaching her son mathematics, see how @generikat spent her day. Her kitchen is a berry goodness location and wait until you see the delicious looking pie her and her son made together. Recipe is included... so what are you waiting for? Head on over!

A Journey Into Stillness In Penang, Malaysia
Have you ever visited a place that seemed detached from the real world? A place that seems so perfectly poised, so delicately hushed, that you almost hesitate to disturb the peace by stepping inside? For me this describes the pagoda at the Kek Lok Si temple in Malaysia. It's an experience I won't forget, but I almost missed it amidst the splendour of the rest of the complex
Let's take a visual tour of the pagoda that @freewheel visited. So many beautiful statues and unbelievable architectural structures! You will be in awe of the peacefulness and the way she captured so many different views.

Backstage- Another Show On The Stage
The actors and actresses are provided a truly sensational performance on the stage with a nice, clean, bright look and colorful makeup. You never know need how much time to preparing all of this kind of beautiful moment at backstage.
Glamorous exterior on stage Type, colorful makeup, the actors are in the sonorous and powerful performance
Are you curious about what goes on backstage before a performance? Have you ever been backstage to see ALL the transformations and what goes into making a show come alive on stage? @vamos-amigo shares some behind the scenes images as well as how much time goes into make-up for the actors and actresses. VERY interesting! You've got to see this!

How To Design Your Own Unique Signature Instantly
It’s been six weeks since I first joined Steemit on 27th Dec 2017. During the past six weeks, I’ve learned lots of useful writing and photographing tips from various experts. Also, I’ve taken part in many competitions and made many new friends as well.
However, there’s one thing that bother me. Until now, I didn’t have my own unique signature. Hence, I decided to design one for myself!
Do you have your own signature for your steemit posts? Do you know how to make one? Or are you impressed when you see a fellow steemians' signature? Well, be jealous no more. @wilhb81 shows us all how simple it is to make your own.
NEWS
@qurator-tier-0:
The lease for @qurator-tier-0 has been filled and it will be used to support the Tier 0 members. We had to do this since Steemit can't really upvote smaller than 0.5% and with our account growing the way it is we were neglecting those who participate and support Qurator. Now that the main @qurator account does not have to upvote T0 members our Voting Power will regenerate at a slow but steady rate, this in turn will mean better upvotes for all the supporters!
Steemit Challenges on Discord
We all know that there are some awesome Steemians that created great challenges with cool prizes here on steemit. @stresskiller took it upon himself to make a really neat Steemit challenges calendar that he synced and integrated into Qurator's Discord Channel. If you are a member of Qurator feel free to check out the Discord Channel and visit the steemit-challenges tab. There you will find an updated list of all the daily/weekly challenges. massive shout-out and thanks to @stresskiller!

New Tiers Update
Steemauto Curation Trail

We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.
Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprize for a lucky trailer. =P

Is there something wrong with qurator voting system? I am asking because I didn’t receive any votes from qurator-tier-0 in the last 48 hrs
You did get one, about 1 day ago. Your newest post didn't which means maybe you psoted before the 24 hour timer was reset. Try EDITING and UPDATING your post. Should ping the bot and then get the vote =)
Thank you. I will give it a try. No big deal. Many thanks for the reply.
So I have seen lots of good people on steemit who work for the greater benefits of the steemit community. I have seen you @qurator making great contributions and great initiatives for supporting the new Steemians like myself. Nice pictures by the way and that strawberry blueberry jam watered my mouth. Once again thank you so much. @qurator
Very good
This place is full of colours and culture, visiting such a place has always been my dream
Seriously exciting prospects. Once the sun goes around the globe for the daty lots will wake up and jump on the Qurator Steemtrain after this
