Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
To all of you that celebrate Christmas and to those that don't and will just enjoy a few days off.
Relax, smile, eat and drink. Watch your favourite movie, visit a friend you havent in a long time.
Be good and be kind. Karma will thank you for it

Feed Your Minnows BOT- Season 59 Registration
Feed Your Minnows is a great project that @oleg326756 came up with where he would feed his Minnows (his awesome followers). He would make a post once a week and all the SBD earned by the post will be paid out to the registered Minnows.
This inspired me to make a Feed Your Minnows of my own, with a little twist of course

Tis Christmas
I have lots of these shots taken when I was whiling away time in the car, in the rain, waiting for family at train station, bus station... you get the idea...
All you need is a smartphone camera, windscreen or car window, rain and lots of street lights

Winter In The Caribbean
This is what winter looks like at the Caribbean. While millions of people are freezing we are feeling the sun burning our skin. Right now we're starting to feel the "cold" temps like 80F° (26C°)... yeah that's cold for us. Remember, we live at the Caribbean so for us temps like 95F° (35C°) to 120F° (48C°) are very normal here so when temps are lower than that we feel like freezing. I'm hoping to get at least 75F° (23C°) this year and I will wrap myself in the blankets burrito style when that happens

I need something in black and white, desperately
Important News:
Christmas Registration Special!
.png)
With Christmas right around the corner we decided to decrease our Registration fee to 2 Steem until 2019. This means instead of the normal 4 Steem it will now be 2 Steem and the one month of bonus upvotes are still active!
Keep in mind all registrations still need to be approved and accounts will be thoroughly checked for plagiarism and spam.
To apply simply send 2 Steem with your username as memo to @qurator. Your account will be reviewed and once approved you will get a wallet message from @qurator with your review results.
Come and join the Q family and support the community who always has quality in mind. Together we are strong!

Qurator ICO is live!!
Introducing Referral Bonuses!
Dear Qurites,
We know times are tough now and we all have to push a little bit harder. We came up with two programs that will help you earn some extra upvotes and visibility from Qurator, and will also help Qurator to reach more Steemians/your friends that need some extra help.
Write a post about Qurator.
Our long time members know how it all works. You have been with us through thick and thin.
Share your experience with your friends and followers. We would love to know how our members see Qurator and what they like (or don't) the most about the project.
Feel free to write in your own native language. We are open to all languages and have already translated our main Qurator post to several languages.
Well written posts will receive some extra upvote love from Qurator and a resteem. :) Feel free to drop your post link in our Daily Qurator comment section, so we don't miss it.
Invite a friend.
Do you know someone who is starting out? Or maybe someone who is posting great posts for a while but still need more exposure? Refer Qurator to your friend and after they get approved and become a member you will also receive a bonus 1SBD upvote on your most recent posts.
There are two ways to do it and this is how it works:
| 1 | You refer a friend to Qurator | You sponsor a membership to your friend |
| 2 | Your friend sends registration fee to Qurator and mentions your name in the memo: referred by @your_steemit_username | You send registration fee to @qurator with your the person's name in memo: @your_friends_username |
| 3 | Our team reviews the account | Our team reviews the account |
| 4 | Your friend is approved - you receive a 1SBD upvote | Your friend is approved - you receive 1SBD upvote |
Keep in mind that all registration rules still apply and all account will be reviewed by our team. You can read about content requirements in THIS post.
Note: Both programs are open to everyone, not only Qurator members.

Steemauto Curation Trail
 | The new curation trail is active and running! If you would like to support your fellow Qurites or just earn some extra curation feel free to join our curation trail that is active on Steemauto. Steemauto guide and registration info |
We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.
Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprise for a lucky trailer. =P

TrufflePigHello everyone! Merry Christmas to you all, Q-team. I understand I haven’t been around much, but believe me I am here in the shadows :) I can’t read every post these days, even now doing this on my phone. But I do keep an eye on things. Funny as it sound you are still here and have the highest SP ever at $0.23 steem! Keep up the good work.
Above is Fort Point. The day I watched Vertigo for the first time I wanted to visit this place. Now I have seen it nearly a hundred times at every possible season but still this place never gets old. It is one of my favorite spots in an urban setting. It can be surprisingly empty even on a busy touristy day and can remain mystic like it is supposed to be.
