Powered Up 459 STEEM plus some inktober images

I just powered up 459.871 STEEM bringing my SP total to 4,761 SP. Steem Block Explorer reports that my upvote is worth $0.0174]. There is still a huge gap between me and my goal.

I have a tiny pile of .3 LTC that I am slowy converting to STEEM. This should bring about 300 STEEM ... but I will still be short of my goal of having an upvote worth $0.02.

SteemIt is such a frustrating place.

InkTober Images

I've been generating an #inktober image a day. I decided not to upload the images but you can see them on Night Cafe.

It takes me about 8 hours to draw and prep an image for steemit. Imagine if I did the whole inktober challenge. I would spend 248 hours on the images. Since the majority of steem votes are just robots upvoting fellow robots, I would probably only break the $0.02 barrier on half the images an pull in less than a dollar for effort.

The Images

The top image shows barn yard animals playing instruments for the prompt "rowdy."

For the "blast" prompt, I wanted to display a blast from the past.

Every blast from the past in our corporate age involves the IP of a megacorporation; So, I generated an image of a coyote holding a stick of dynamite for the bottom image.

Am I to blame if Night Cafe generated an image that violated Warner Brothers IP?

Conclusion

I've been buying and powering up STEEM all month long. Sadly, i will fall short of my goal of having a two penny upvote. I have about 300 STEEM to go; so I should break the 5k barrier, but not my real goal.
