Calling all Steem Artists and Photographers
One of our primary goals since conceptualizing this magazine has been to engage the community in helping us with the project as much as possible. Since we need a cover, we thought that it would be perfect to give anyone the chance to display their art on the cover by submitting their posts rather than just searching for some art elsewhere and using it for the cover.
After this post pays out, we will go through all the submissions and pick the one that we feel fits the magazine best, so it looks good in both digital and printed formats. We reserve the right not to upvote or pick any of the submissions if something smells fishy.
Any art or photography, no matter the subject can qualify for a submission but keep in mind that those that represent the best of this ecosystem and Steem have a more significant chance of being approved.
We will prepare a post one week from now announcing the winner and showcasing the cover. There are no prizes involved besides appearing on the cover of The STEEM Chronicles, a magazine that will hopefully be distributed worldwide by Steemians, and receiving votes from the team members. In case you aren’t selected to be on the cover, don’t worry about it, you still have a chance to be featured in the magazine but more about that in the future.
Requirements
- The submission must be original artwork or photography
- It can be previous work or specialized for the magazine
- If it is a new post, post it on Steemit with the title [Steem Chronicles] [Your post title] and use the tag #steemchronicles
- If you are sharing something from an older post on Steemit, you can directly link it to us in the comment section
- You can even make a compilation filled with your former work, letting the Steem Chronicles team choose the one that fits the best
- The submission for the cover only lasts seven days, but you can still submit art and photography because we might use them in the magazine if needed.
- Contributors must be aware that this is a community project and the copyrights of ownership that follows.

I like how they look, especially the tree but we're still experimenting with multiple covers, and we'll see what fits the best. Thank you for joining.
Here is my submission

Love it! It should definitely be the winner
Thanks! I’m glad you think that :)
amazing photo @ruth-elise!

Thank you @alexandraioana26. Glad you like it!
Thanks @adrianv 😊
I love this, I like how it fits on the cover, but even if I like it a lot, I won't be able to use it because it doesn't represent our vision and the blockchain. Thank you for submitting. :D
Thank you! that’s alright. I understand 😊
These are my three submissions:
I like them, especially the first one but they don't represent the blockchain so I won't be able to use any. Thank you. :)
Photographing the blockchain is a bit hard .. :)
Haha, I know. :))
My submissions, hope you like them :D
I like the first one a lot, we'll see about it, thank you.
Thank you!! :D
Here are my pieces for submission
I really like these, they are cool, but we're trying to keep the magazine as kids friendly as possible. :)
Here's a compilation of previous works; all photos are analog and do work great for digital and print. Resolution is big enough for crops.
Enjoy!

Great action! Resteemed. Here are mine entries. Well for this round I am giving three pics. Next time others. Thank you. Bye
These are really good looking; we like them. Not sure if we can use them, making the cover look the way we want, but we'll keep your submission in mind. :)
Hmmm so you look for the theme ? Maybe I have something more for you ;) Thank you for your attention.
This is a great concept (love the title!!) and I also love the idea of putting a contest out there for the cover. @wanderlass told me about this, and I wish I had the talent to involve myself:) , but what I can do is come back with my #newbieresteemday hat on and resteem this so more people see it. Cheers and good luck to everyone entering:)
Thanks for the #newbieresteemday resteem @lynncoyle1 :)
My pleasure @wanderlass! I think any contest that brings people together or encourages community and creativity, like this one...is totally worth the resteem :)

Hey, @poeticsnake, these are very cool, I'm taking them into consideration. Thank you. :)
Great initiative! Maybe I ll participate too. Good job @guyfawkes4-20
AWESOME JOB! Hope you’ll pull this off guys:) Resteemed
This is a great idea! I look forward to reading it :D
BLENG! Supported! What an awesome idea, I am informing all my peeps.
#steemchronicles sounds like a fantastic project... Look forward to watching it blossom!
I'm glad to see this project coming along.
I know that you mentioned offline prints - were you planning on printing them yourselves or was just something you'd let the community do if they wanted?
I love the magazine concept and this is another great way to promote Steemit. I wish I have the talent to join! This post has already been added by @macchiata in the contests channel of the Steemit Traveller discord but I will also share this to my artist friends. I wish you find the best cover for the Steem Chronicles :)
A wonderful concept and contest you have here! We're happy to share it in the hopes of getting you more participants!
Congratulations you have been resteemed as part of #newbieresteemday's top posts for the day! ...

Hey guys, here's my entry. I designed this exclusively for the magazine cover.
Here's the post with details of the design process: https://steemit.com/steemchronicles/@scuzzy/the-steem-chronicles-magazine-cover-design-entry
We like this one, thank you for making something special for the cover, we are considering it. :)
Thanks for the opportunity! My submissions:
I gotta think about this one, I'm sure I have something that would be appropriate... TO THE ARCHIVES!!!!
what an awesome idea! i LoVE that so many different groups are out here helping to promote steemit and steem! I am looking forward to the first steem chronicles magazine! With all the awesome artist and writers out there this will surely be a hit! You say for print also? Not for profit. So will you be printing these and sending them around or are you saying we all would be able to use these to pass around our towns? I found this through @wanderlass on the newbieresteemday discord!
Really intrigued to see what direction this project goes!
Following you now ;)
