Introducing @rePhoto: An automated upvote and resteem service for undervalued photography content across the Steemit platform!
Good evening Steemit community!
After months of planning, designing and developing, it is with a huge smile on our faces and an absolute pleasure, that we are proud to announce the launch of project @rePhoto!

What is @rePhoto?
Some of the best photography content on steemit is also the most undervalued. This is not through lack of effort, skill or talent of the author, but simply the post falling through the cracks to "the bottom of the pile". This is most common with minnow's and photographer's new to the steemit platform.
rePhoto's primary aim is to give author's at least one more chance of exposure to the photography community. It resteem's only photography content back to photographer's across the steemit platform. rePhoto also use's a random upvote algorithm to increase exposure to post's and furthermore reward photography work through a fair system. There is also manual curation constantly searching for undervalued content to reward.
"@rePhoto is an automated service that looks to curate/upvote and resteem undervalued photography content across the steemit platform. In particular, it aim's to work alongside minnow photographers increasing their exposure and in turn reward payout. Manual curation is used especially to promote authors where additional time, effort and love is clearly reflected in their photography work."
We are here to help the community; bringing beautiful, wonderful and original photography back to the top of the pile.

How to use @rePhoto
(To limit abuse you must follow @rePhoto for a minimum of 2 hours before using the service.)
Using rePhoto is very simple.
First, you have to ensure your content is photography based as rePhoto is ultimately here for the photography community. To do this a 'Photography' tag must be included in your post. After posting your content, copy the URL link to your post and open your Steemit wallet. Click on the Steem Dollar amount and select transfer.
In the 'To' section type 'rephoto'.
In the 'Memo' section paste the URL to your post
In the 'Amount' section type in the correct amount to send (see below)
Click 'Submit'
After this your post will be automatically resteemed and you will receive a comment on that post to confirm!
Prices for @rePhoto
We especially encourage photography minnows and those new to Steemit to use rePhoto, so with this in mind we have deliberately set the price very low for those with reputation currently lower than 33 and use a simple algorithm to calculate a slightly higher price for those above.
Reputation < 33 | Reputation > 33 |
---|---|
Fixed 0.01 SBD | Reputation level / 1000 (i.e 52 / 1000 = 0.052 SBD) |
Troubleshooting
If you are receiving error messages, please read below.
Problem: "@username is not a follower, or 2 hours haven't passed since following"
- Solution: To limit abuse our service can only be used after you have followed rePhoto for a minimum of 2 hours - the only solution for this is to grab a sandwich and wait it out.
Problem: "Paid (SBD amount) but the price for (...) reputation is (SBD amount)"
- Solution: A common issue once users continually using the service increase their reputation. Remember the price will be 0.01 SBD until you reach a reputation level over 33.
Problem: "rephoto is a photography service. Please include a photography tag to resteem your post!"
- Solution: Remember rePhoto is for the photography community. A photography tag must be used in order for rePhoto to resteem it!
Whenever a problem arises your original transfer will be refunded automatically back to your wallet with the appropriate error message.
Remember, you can only use rePhoto once per post.
rePhoto may not be immune to the odd bug - if there is any other problem please contact us directly here.
Final words...
We wish everyone the best in what they are here to do on Steemit and look forward to being a huge part of the photography community!

Maybe I glazed over it in the post or maybe it wasn't there, but are you in any need of long term steem power delegation leases to support this service? I already delegate to a couple of projects which provide me returns from it and I may be coming into some steem power to spare if it's desired. Just let me know.
Nice to see this being started up. I don't post much photography but I do upvote a good bit of posts under that tag.
Absolutely!
We would love to talk to you more indepth about this. Are you available on discord or steemit chat?
May I ask - where on discord do you meet?
Most likely direct message!
Although @rephoto doesn't have a discord account yet, so the best form of contact would be direct messaging through @youareyourowngod
Hey @cryptoburner - are you available on discord, we would love to talk to you further!
Yes I’m on discord. I’ll be at work for the rest of the day but I’ll try and get in touch with you this evening on discord so we can get the conversation started. I don’t have a crap ton of SP to delegate, maybe 500 to start with and possibly more later.
I’ll be in touch.
No problem, although this account is not registered on there yet so I will have to contact you under another account. What is your username on discord?
I’m 99% sure it’s the same as my username here on steemit. Gosh I should remember this stuff but I need to log in and verify (this evening).
I’ll be on the lookout for incoming messages there.
Had a look but couldn't find you under that username @cryptokeepr - if you can log on direct message @youareyourowngod and we can go from there
Hey I just messaged you on steemit chat so let's pick it up there when you're ready. I'm a corporate tool so I have a busy schedule like most but I'll get back to you as soon as I'm able. I usually check in on steemit around 6 am EST and in the evenings around 9 p.m. and sometimes I'm bad and stay up too late like tonight. Time for sleep!
gave ya a 100% went from $.19 - $.92 YIIIING!

Curious? Read @resteembot's introduction post
Check out the great posts I already resteemed.
ResteemBot's Maker is Looking for Work
Fix your instructions. On them it is written that if reputation is bigger than 33 you bid 0.01 and if it's less than that you do the calculation ( "<"-this and ">"-this sign have to be inverted). Otherwise awesome idea. I hope it catches on with other photographers ! Good luck!
Thankyou for alerting us to this @rorxco! Problem solved.
As further gratitude we have resteemed your photography post on us. Thankyou for your support!
