The Circle Of Steem | An entry to the 2018 Steem Silver Round Design Contest
This is a really cool contest conducted by @phelimint and @sevinwilson wherein you have to send in a design which, if you win, will be imprinted on a silver coin!
How epicly royal is that?!
Check out their posts here and there.
I came across their posts thanks to @papa-pepper's post.
What Did You Make?
Here is my entry:
I'm joking.
I can't draw that well.
Here's the actual blueprint:
Sucks, amirite?
Unwanted Explanation Of Unwanted Entry
Outer Layer
Starting from the Feather Pen, every alternate icon represents the various apps created on the Steem ecosystem, as well as anything else that we Steemers like to indulge ourselves in, in our beautiful website - Steemit.
Here's a breakdown analysis of each icon:
Icon | App & Such |
---|---|
Feather Pen | Every article you ever wrote that earned 0.01 cents (Blogs) |
Video Cam | Videos that you used to post on Youtube but now post here (@Dlive, @Dtube) |
Camera | Your ugly photos that no one sees (@steepshot) |
Music | Copyrighted music and long hours of droning podcasts (@Dsound) |
Fire | Lit memes (@dmania, Decent Memes) |
Coding Thingy | Where nerds unite (@utopian-io etc.) |
Messages | Link spamming in chatboxes (Steemit Chat, Discord etc.) |
Community | "Let's form a majority and bully the minority!" (Awesome communities of Art, Music etc.) |
The Other Outer Layer
This one starts from that Dead Fish and altern- yeah genius, you figured it out.
Boomanotherawesometable:
Sea Life | Huh? |
---|---|
Dead Fish | People who stopped posting |
Plankton | N00bs |
Small Fish | N00bs that aren't 25 anymore |
Minnow | The reader probably |
Dolphin | One who thinks he's above Whale, but isn't |
Shark | Power + Flagging = Shark (You know who these are.) |
Orca | Some weird phase between a Dolphin and Whale |
Whale | The ones you beg to, to up-vote your posts |
The Inner Stuff
Here, you can see the huge Steem logo occupying majority of the space like how it's been doing in the market lately. Not that I follow the market, but you're going to agree anyway.
Next, you see the dots. Big ones and small ones.
These represent two things -
- The fact that Steem's going to the Moon!
- Bubbles underwater, where all the Sea Life dwell.
And finally, the current year.
So that was a brief explanation of what's going on in that mess up there.
Thank you for reading!
If you liked what you read, then check out my previous posts and memes, because they're lit and I told you so.

Cool submission man, you included lots of different elements I like it.
Thank you @phelimint! Glad you liked it. :)
Hahaha, I can see some serious thought went into the design..
You have studied the steemcosystem well. 😁
Thanks inuke! Serious thought? Studied the system well?
The icons' description says otherwise. xD
You may think so, but atleast you know what are the key ingredients in steemit and not like the other person who I met who thinks steemit of as an ask and tell quora platform. Better yet other one thought it was a platform where you copy others work and pass it as his own.
Okay, let's not go that low, shall we? 😆
Sorry, Bro... It just I get frustrated sometimes. That's all.
I understand your point.
Haha! Chill bro, was joking :P
