Winner's guide to posting a new source image.

Please start a new thread:
"DU Contest [enter the next month] 2023 "

with your (high resolution) source as our new contest, posted in the first comment.

[The winner of the next challenge cannot be the current winner/source giver, although they can post an entry, stating that their work is a sample and not to be voted on. However, if their work is voted on and wins, we will take the next highest vote as our winner.]
