People don't usually like reposted contents, @dusoleil because ALL the monies come from one reward pool and reposting contents can be seen as double-dipping, so be careful when you do them :)

What I recommend is that you add something to the picture, even if it's just changing the word contents of the post. So that the picture might be reposted contents, but the words are always new and valuable for your followers to read :)

Getting acclimatized to new social media DOES take time, so I hope you will continue to find your groove and be successful at Steemit :)
