The Contest is LIVE!! All you graphic designers and non-graphic designers out there submit your artwork and you could win up to 30 Steem!

About a week ago, @phelimint and I announced that the 2018 Steem Round would be coming soon!

You can read all about it right here!

Before we get started with the rules about the contest, I want to give some background information on this project, which is now in it's second year. Last year, this project was brand new to the community and we were unsure how it would go over with the community, but we went ahead full force with it.

We set a limit of 1,500 coins maximum that could ever be minted. Well the community gobbled all of these coins up before they were even minted yet!!

Last year the design was done on a much smaller scale because it was our first year creating this coin within the community and did not know what to expect. We only had 5 entries and two of them were from me! @bearone was the
winner of the design and she tweaked the design multiple times for us! Thanks for making it so incredible @bearone!

Here is what the final product looked like from last year! If you want to purchase some, I have some available for sale and you can learn more here.

We are doing something pretty revolutionary (at least in my eyes) in that we are trying to crowdfund as much of the premium as possible through Steem(it). @phelimint and I are donating the SBD rewards from any posts related to the coin to @steemsilverround. If any one else wants to post about the round, contests, or updates and donate the SBD to @steemsilverround we would really appreciate it!
