Introducing the world's first blockchain based international skateboarding app!
Skatehive has been alive since before the days of hive and was born on steemit by our founder @knowhow92
The motto is: Skate, Post, Earn.
We have an amazing lineup of skateboarders developing their skills and growing their stack of tricks with token rewards here on hive.
Our developers are always improving the apps user experience as well as functionality to provide a unique and niche experience for the future of skateboarding and hive.
My role in the community is very minimal but I do have one
As much as I neglect improving my skills in traditional art, I have grown just a wee bit in the digital application.
I am a promoter and also curator(weekly stoken #61 coming soon lool) but my past and love for art has inspired me to create some assets that I felt could be documented in this space.
Admittedly, the header on this post was made using midjourney ai + canva to produce a sweet promotional image but that's not what this post is actually about.
One of our skaters who is a really talented street artist asked me to clean up some of his letters with a transparent .PNG digital file format.
@fonestreet thanks for the opportunity to be able to do something cool!
Using the procreate app on iPad I took a picture of the video he shared with me of the letters and traced them using one of my favorite default brushes.
He asked me to do some fatcap effects, but I don't actually know how to do that yet, so I am gonna look it up and try to produce that style for him next time.
I didn't remember off top how to make it transparent at first but since we are on the internet wow it sure didn't take long to figure it out.
I didn't actually have to use the tips in this video, but I do think it will be helpful in the future.
Like a true blockchain promoter this post will also be used to comment on the video with my ecency referral backlinking to this youtuber with 12.4k subs inviting him to join hive and monetize his educational content.
Maybe they will be interested to monetize their content here and earn some hive simply reposting or uploading here to support decentralization XD
I simply turned off the white background in the layers drop down and voila
Its fully transparent and fone can use this for any of his posts or image edits.
I only changed the lettering slightly, so all the credits and a portion of the post rewards go to the homie!
Using other assets from the team like this super cool gif made by @web-gnar and this beautiful photo reel by @toffer showing off a trick attempt.
I am very pleased that we can make compilations representing the true spirit of decentralization and promote the best blockchain community around ;P
Thanks for reading
