"Welcome to Steemit" Banner Submisions - Community Review!
The "Welcome to Steemit" page is the first thing that new users will see after they signup for an account via Steemit.com. We want the page to look awesome and inviting!
@bitcoiner and I posted a $50 SBD bounty to get submissions from the community for the banner that will go at the top of the page.
After we receive feedback from the community (via this post), we will review the submissions with Steemit, Inc. and see which ones qualify for the site. Assuming we find at least one that works - we will chose one winner and update the "Welcome to Steemit" page to have the new banner at the top!!
Important note - The raw images (without the text) are what will get used on the site. We will overlay HTML text over the top, but it will not be in the same format as the text in the image. We will do our best to make it look similar, but it will look different than what is shown. The images that are shown with text on them are a SAMPLE of what the banner could look like with text.
Here are the entries!

I like the idea of the pencil, writing, in the first one, but the font bevel effect doesn't look good.
The second one has a nicer, simpler font and look, but a bit too many trees... and I dunno... why trees? Maybe that could be explained more. It just doesn't seem to fit.
Good job everyone, thanks for the work!
That makes sense :)
Agreed about the bevel. Regardless I think it is my favorite as it best matches the site.
i like entry 1 with text format of entry 2! 😉 entry 2 animation is also neat...
Entry 1 - I saw the day it was done and posted and I liked it right away.
Entry 3 - 2nd choice - input for you in case you need tie breaking info.
I like that flashing thingy LOL, I would just adjust it so it is a little quicker or stays on the screen longer, and the info that flashes does not get missed in the attention economy.
Feel free to use any of these ...

Nice stuff. I didn't know you had all that. I might need to use some of those :)
Those are awesome, thanks!
I like son-of-satire's no.2&3 the best.the tree outlines are refreshing to the eye.
Personally, I like the look of #6 the best.
Looks professional and the background brings up the thought of binary which could be associated with the blockchain.
Overall, I feel that 1, 2 and 6 are the best.
I am glad you noticed this, as someone stated previously that they had difficulty discerning the meaning of the background. Great eye-
I prefer no 2 :)
The #2 is my favorite, but I would better like it with the color of #3.
I was just doing some file-organizing on my PC and realised that my post with version 2 contained low-res images so as not to be a drain on the bandwidth of those viewing the page.
If you need the hi-res version for testing or otherwise, just let me know and I will provide it.
Ok, will do. Thanks!
I prefer number 9. At first I liked #1 but the pencil seems to convey that Steemit is for writers only. Number 2 is also cool.
