@blockbrothers graphic designer. He grew up knowing one thing: Design is everything! With a solid 20 year background in 3d animation and a side-dish of renderfarm maintenance and pipeline development, he makes sure his day-job people can keep doing their job, maintaining the entire workflow from start to finish. He now focuses his attention on Steemit, while relying on his strong point of playing devil's advocate for anything blockbrothers comes up with, finding weaknesses in anything from design, to UI to UX and coming up with solutions for them. -------- # How can you vote for us? --------- ## Please vote [here](https://steemit.com/~witnesses) for @blockbrothers ![23213.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmTEUjT3oHB6ZviHp8MdBUUj6rooyiZpPKqiPE7K2Di4Dx/23213.png) -----------------------
