Today we’re excited to host the 2nd monthly thumbnail competition for State of the Sndbox! Each Wednesday Sndbox does a newsletter - State of the Sndbox - to update the Steemit community on our progress and ongoing work. This monthly competition gives Steemians an opportunity to showcase their creativity as the face of the newsletter.

Our exciting first round had incredible submissions and we’ve been waiting in anticipation to see what creativity will come from this week. These were the top entries from round 1 and the winner of course being @animate with this awesome Gif cycle -

Every Steemian is invited to submit a thumbnail / landing image using a few parameters (outlined below). The top submissions will receive big Sndbox upvotes and the winner’s image will be featured for each week of October’s State of the Sndbox posts!

Competition Rules

To be eligible for prizes, you must follow these simple instructions-

Design a landing image that is 1000 pixels x 600 pixels, uses the @sndbox color palette and has the title “State of the Sndbox” clearly legible.
Publish a personal post using the image, describing a bit of the inspiration, have “State of the Sndbox Competition Entry” as part of the post title, and use #sndbox in the tags so that we can upvote you!
Upload the image with a link to your post in the comments below.
Deadline is Tuesday, October 3, 2017 10pm EST. Earlier submissions are recommended to receive more exposure! We will reveal the winner in the following State of the Sndbox post.

Voting Prizes

With the cumulative weight of our curation trail and delegation power, we’re now able to support many more entries with upvotes and provide increased visibility rather than limited SBD amounts. Standings will be determined by the Sndbox community and prizes will be as follows -

First Place = 100% Upvote, Approximately $50 - The winner’s image will be used on the following month’s State of the Sndbox posts. We will credit your name wherever we use your work!
Second Place = 60% Upvote, Approximately $35
Third, Fourth and Fifth Place = 25% Upvote each, Approximately $15 each

ALL completed entries will receive a 5% upvote (approximately $2.50) and will be featured in a dedicated post with linked accounts. Everyone is invited to submit! Have fun, and best of luck!
