It’s that time again! We’ve been accepting submissions on the Ubuntu Artwork Flickr group for a while now but with the deadline fast approaching for Beta we need to get together a shortlist and finalise the photo wallpapers that will be in the next Ubuntu release in October.

There’s still time, we’re looking for submissions to the group by the end of the week – Friday 20th August at 12pm UTC. From then on we’ll have some previous winners shortlist and choose the final photos to be included.

For your entry to be considered it has to be on Flickr or available to be supplied in 1920×1680 resolution or higher and as with previous contests the image has to be your own.

If you have any questions you can find a new discussion thread on Flickr or catch us in the comments and on the usual IRC channels.
