[Voting Post] - Graffiti Lettering Contest #1 (START) | Ecency

Hello HIVE & STREETART Community
Hope you all doing all right
Welcome to the first voting post for
The Graffiti Lettering Contest

Shout out to @failingforwards for providing us this nice header for the meantime! Really appreciated! Thanks a lot!

Here's a little tip to show you my appreciation! 🙏😁

^{I'm planning to do an official "Graffiti Lettering Contest" graffiti as a main logo at some point, but if anyone feeling fancy giving it a go or doing some digital art for it feel free to do so and I'll be happy to have a look and maybe use it as our main logo!

So get creative people 😎}

I will post here a list of people who I think could appreciate the contest, people who helped and supported me in the idea and friends. I will also add any future participants and winners.
I will do this also as a reminder, I personally appreciate it when I get tagged in contests that I usually participate in, but if anyone prefers not to get tagged please let me know and I will remove your name from the list.
Let me know also if you want to get added to this list! Cheers

Voting Post Overview

As you all know by now, last week I posted my first ever Contest on the blockchain involving Graffiti Lettering and a random word to "draw".
The word I did choose for the first entry was START and by my surprise I had 4 entries with 4 different approaches and art styles, which is something I really liked to see!

I'm the first one that said to do the Lettering in any way you prefer!

Thank you @brittandjosie, @ryzeonline, @gaboamc2393, and @yems for your entries! Hugely appreciated and enjoyed!
Wonderful Job guys! You made me really happy! Keep it UP

Great engagement and I also added some new members to our list that asked to be included and I can't wait to see some of their entries next week 😁

What I need now from each one of you to do while you get ready for next week, is to have a look at the 4 entries we received this week and give out your votes!

So choose your 3 favourite entries and comment under this post, either tagging the 3 participants or simply writing down their username!

^{Personal comment: Big UP for this participation man! You made it just before expiry, respect the hussle! Really liked your entry, as I said that's definitely my favourite! You made the proper Graffiti and it's a great one! Hope to see you in every contest! 😎}

Prizes

100% of the liquid payout of the contest post will be used for the prizes!

1st place 50%, 2nd place 30% and 3rd place 20%
Three honourable mentions will be each given 1 HIVE from me 😎
^{Initially I thought to give out 0.5 HIVE from my own pocket and then my friend @wesphilbin tipped me 5 HIVE and yesterday my other friend @gaboamc2393 tipped me 1 HIVE, I found myself receiving an incredible support for this contest! And on top of this I was thinking that I could definitely use some of the earnings I will do from this voting posts and so I decided to keep the 1 HIVE for honourable mentions permanent! And depending from the earning of this voting posts I'm definitely willing and happy to increase rewards in the future (and number of honourable mention payouts) 😎😁}

Shout out to #StreetArt community for giving me the space to host my Contest in their community! One Love! 😎
