Introducing SteemPhotos: Instagram (Flickr?) powered by Steem
Steemit is a great project with a powerful infrastructure but it focuses firstly on the text format of posts (and mostly on articles). Some developers are working on fixing this problem and already launched own projects to improve Steemit. For example, @dzivenu launched Peer Query for queries,
@zombee launched dMania for memes,
@heimindanger launched D.Tube for videos.
But there is still no project for photos and I decided to fix this.
SteemPhotos
Right now it is a simple website which gets trending posts with the photography tag and displays their main picture in an own interface. When you hover your mouse over an image then you can see a post title, author username, payout, and a number of comments/upvotes. If you click it then you can see an image in a higher resolution and a link to a steemit post (in the near future, I will also add comments, tags, and all other information that you can see on Steemit).
