Welcome to a new round of Let's Make a Collage!

The LMAC community keeps growing, now counting 3,430 LMACians!. 11 collages participated and supported our community prize pool with their contributions** to the LMAC and the LIL during the last week. This allows us to award huge community prizes worth 20 HIVE in this round!

The LMAC Image Library (LIL) is a great resource in the LMACsphere and we will continue to accept and reward your contributions. If you would like to catch up with the LIL and its rules please start 👉 here.

You can now explore the entire LIL catalogue with more than 14'000 items on our dedicated web interface:

👉 https://www.lmac.gallery 👈

❗️ We highly encourage all LMACians to use LIL assets in their collages and will provide additional rewards for doing so:

• Set the contributor of the LIL assets used in your collage as 2% beneficiary.
• In turn, collages using LIL-assets will be supported with a higher vote weight by our trail!

We hope that many of you will dive into the LIL to find images for your next collage.

IMPORTANT (❗️ new information ❗️)

• 🚫 Collages with minimal cropping or without a harmonious and clear composition will not be accepted.
  Example: A background with one or more images pasted on it is not enough.
  We do not expect a great work of art, but we do expect the collage to have artistic and narrative intent.
  Each participant should at least include a brief text explaining the collage. It can be:
  -- A summary about its inspiration or meaning.
  -- The reason you chose those images.
  -- A poem or story related to the work.
  -- A short step-by-step of how you created it.
  Entries with just "This is my entry" without minimal context will not be accepted.
• 🚫 We will not accept participation from users who just show up for the contest and disappear from the blockchain until the next one, we want more users engaged with Hive. By this we don't mean that you have to leave 50 comments per day, but a minimum presence on the blockchain is required.
