My latest post "green bike" got a crap ton of down votes when there is nothing wrong with the post. I noticed my posts started getting down votes when I started adding a watermark even though the Green Bike post doesn't have one.
I am not spamming( I post like 3-4 times a day, sometimes less than that) Spam is posting the same thing over and over) ,not scamming people, I am not using bots to upvote my post, I feel that is cheating and I rather get upvotes the right way. When I post my YouTube videos, they are mine unless noted, so unless you see ( video by Tom Vlogs eg) then the video is mine. The only reason I can think of for why I am being downvoted is people think the images I am uploading are stolen(which is an acceptable reason to downvote someone). I WANT TO MAKE THIS CLEAR. ALL IMAGES ARE MINE, UNLESS OTHER WISE NOTED. I started a photography Instagram and Facebook, so I added my watermark. I also post my images on Deviantart, but I cannot change my name on there as I do not have money for Core membership ( you need core to change your name)
I am going to link my IG, Facebook to prove these images are mine ( I added my watermark on the images on Facebook)

If you go on my Steemit profile, my name is Jazz Williams, and I added photography to fit what I am doing.
So I just made it clear my images are not being stolen. I can't think of any other reason why I am getting down votes unless people think I stole the image.
If you possibly know what's causing this, you can tell me. Its upsetting when people down vote you but not tell you what you have done wrong. Especially those who are new to Steemit.
SO that is all
SO from here on out, when ever I post an image from my computer, where ever I post the photo ( Facebook, IG, Deviantart,Fliiby) I will provide a link to the photo or profile. Maybe an original source will help stop the down voters, since just stating all images are mine are not enough.
