Lubuntu Hirsute Hippo 21.04 Artwork Contest
The Lubuntu Team is pleased to announce we are running a Hirsute Hippo artwork competition, giving you, our community, the chance to submit, and get your favorite wallpapers for both the desktop and the greeter/login screen (SDDM) included in the Lubuntu 21.04 release.
Show Your Artwork
To enter, simply post your image into the thread on the Lubuntu Discourse forum.
We will close the thread (on the Lubuntu discourse) on February 25th, 2021 and the judging will begin. No late submissions will be accepted.
The artwork selection committee will select the finalists for the Lubuntu Members to vote on.
Two selected images will be readily seen in Lubuntu 21.04, one will become the main wallpaper as with prior releases, another different image will be used for greeter/login (SDDM background).
Rules
There are a few rules though. Please make sure you are happy to submit your work under these rules before you post it. Posting your images here indicates acceptance of the rules.
Ownership
The images you upload must be yours. If you see an image which you know to be misrepresented please flag it and we will take care of it.
Size
Please don’t upload the full-size image to discourse. Large images will slow down this thread so please use smaller images here. In due course, we will contact submitters for access to finalist images, which should be at least 2560×1600. As before, if your requested full-size image isn’t received in time (to be packaged), it won’t be included.
Quality
As previously mentioned, the final image size should be at least 2560×1600 pixels. Images much smaller than this won’t scale up well. Equally, images with a lot of compression artifacts won’t look good. Your image won’t be accepted if the quality is low.
Watermarking
Personal watermarks should be removed. Acceptable watermarks include the “Lubuntu” name, Lubuntu logo, “Hirsute Hippo” release name, and “21.04” release version. Any images with other watermarks will not be accepted. Watermarks should be kept small and unobtrusive to the image.
License
Your image(s) must be licensed under the CC BY-SA 4.06 or CC BY 4.03 license. If you do not specify a license in your post then we will assume that you are licensing the image under the CC BY-SA 4.0. By entering the competition you are agreeing to these license terms.

Additional note: If your image is smaller than 2560×1600 and is so great you feel it should be considered, submit it anyway with a note on what resolution can be supplied. We may decide it’s so good we must include it as well.
