Thank You All So much for participating in this contest. It has been a labour of Love, over the past 3 months, and I'm grateful to see you all taking part!
Here are some of the best links submitted in Round 1 of the Welcoming Contest. I gave away 90 Steem to the participants in Round 1!!!! I'm keeping a complete ledger of all of the prizes awarded which I will publish at the end of this contest series.
@rodeo670 @ilyastarar won bonus points for most referenced guides!! These would be two steemians to Follow!

The Contest.
For this round, you will find the best information for new users, and make turn them into your own post.
Here is a guide I wrote for new users. It's not complete, it's just a simple guide I made so I didn't have to find all of the same links for every new user I met.
Read the above guide, and use that as an example.
Your job is to make your own guide, based on the links above, and the example I already made. Feel free to copy any part of Welcome to Steemit. A Simple Guide to Getting Started as a Steem Blogger, or any of the other articles which I have written.
There Will Be A 50 Steem Prize for the Top 2 Contestants
That's Right. The Best 2 Entries win 50 Steem Each!
You will also get some good votes on your post if you did a great job!
