Nice move bro👏, welcome onboard

Welcome to the Hive community @hadeyjumor!
We sincerely hope you find everything you are looking for and have found a new home here.

Seven suggestions to consider:
1. Guard your passwords carefully, and only publish with the posting key,
2. Use your active key only for wallet transactions, Keychain, Peaklock, and Hivesigner
3. The ***owner*** password is only used to reset compromised passwords,
4. ***DO NOT*** lose your passwords; **copy and store offline,**
5. ***Do not publish other people's work, be it photos or written, without credit, and be sure to source all of your work, even if it is your own***.
6. ***An introduceyourself tag is used only once*** , and
7. **Do** ***Not*** open any links in memos or comments that you do not know who they belong to. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is, so the old saying goes. There is nothing free here.

I found you because @brittandjosie and @jamerussell from @heyhaveyamet presented and promoted your publication to get more exposure and help you grow faster.

If you find yourself overwhelmed and need some guidance, or if you have any questions, there are informed Hivians available who can help you; you can click to go to The Terminal in Discord here:

Have fun and happy Hiving!

Welcome to Hive , Drey. I can see you have already made some friends. That's one of the good way to start. You also tried to show that the images were yours. This shows that you have be mentored very well on the importance of sourcing images you use on a post. 
Just few tips. 
Engagement is one the best way to get audience; ensure to engage in other people's post. 

Avoid plagiarism. There are many contests that can take you away from using other people's work just for the sake of earning. Check out @inkwell's prompt , @dreemport challange , @ecotrain weekly prompt and many others. 

Once again, welcome to Hive.

Hello @hadeyjumor ! This is @chillwithshanna from @ocd (Original Content Decentralized) team. We saw that you already posted your first blog here in Hive! **Congratulations and welcome**!

It's also best to subscribe to [Communities](https://peakd.com/communities) you like and share your blogs there to have a wider range of audience. Or you can check out the [Communities Incubation Program](https://peakd.com/hive-174578/@ocd/ocd-communities-incubation-program-update-58).

Also, letting you know since content on the Hive platform is monetized, using other people’s ideas or images could be considered as an offense and which is also viewed in a serious light on the blockchain.
