Community guidelines
We encourage you to follow simple rules when publishing:
- All published images should be of high quality.
- Your content should not be perceived as repulsive and shocking.
- Publications should not incite hatred and be directed against a social group. Also, one should not publish calls for violence or terrorism.
- It is undesirable to publish something that has no attributes of authorship. For example, a screenshot of the phone screen.
- All adult content must be marked by the author by the #nsfw tag. Publication of pornographic content is not allowed.
- Advertising or fraud is not allowed.
- You should not publish requests for the transfer of money (for any reason) and negative media (messages in the spirit of "repay it, or it will happen terrible").

We expect users to downvote the content that does not follow the rules mentioned above and allow ourselves to hide it.

How to start using Steepshot app? What is the tech behind? See this post
Awesome news! Thanks for the great platform!
This is great project. And to be honest the its scroll feature is what I like the most. Didn't have to wait to load next
Hurrah, endless scroll. Thanks #steepshot, loving your hard work.
Have you got any plans in place to try to stop the rampant plagiarising of imagery as well as the use of stock photography to scam upvotes out of people that we see on Steemit every day?
Yes, we do. The main question is in the definition of plagiarism and in technical ways of tracking it.
For me, there is no reason that any author should be posting anything but their own material on steepshot. Maybe that's not the view of others however. Technically, I know it's very difficult to track this, especially as google have closed down their image search API which is the best way to manually find images that are on stock websites. Im sure you guys will work it out ;) Its one of the most exciting platforms out there.
Couldn't agree more, I want to connect with people posting their own original content on #steepshot
It's really improving platform and concept
Just discovered stepshot, seems like an amazing idea. Can't wait to get my camera to be able to contribute. How does the reward system work? You get paid in steem or? Are you planing to implement SMTs?
Thank you for your questions, @runicar. The rewards system and economics is bound to Steem and you get rewarded in Steem. Regarding SMTs, we'd like to see the actual implementation first before making any plans.
That's so cool I'm looking forward to making my first contributions soon :)
Resteemed to get the word, would like to see more people contribute their work. Steemit is full of talented photographers.
good good good!!!
Very cool app, I downloaded it and this is a game changer!
I hope steepshot suport for ios
