Ubuntu 18.04 LTS: Sign up for Bionic Beaver

His tradition Free Culture Showcase continues this year for the upcoming Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver), opening its doors to photographers and artists from around the world.

According an announcement posted by Nathan Haines, a member of the Ubuntu community, the contest Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase is now officially open for submissions. For those who don't know, this particular competition is about wallparers recommended for the next major release of Canonical's popular operating system. Ubuntu 18

LTS versions are supported by the company for five years.

Of course, this is not a competition like the ones we know, as no one will win a prize. As anyone who manages to create the best wallpaper, will know that his work will be displayed on the computer screens of millions of Ubuntu users worldwide.

This time, in addition to wallpapers, the Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase also accepts sample files and music that will be available in the “Examples” folder of the upcoming Ubuntu LTS 18.04.

"Long-term support versions like Ubuntu 18.04 LTS are very important because they are downloaded and installed ten times more often than any temporary version," says Nathan Haines.

"This means that the wallpapers, videos and music that will be sent will appear ten times more than in other releases. So artists, choose your best works ".

Submissions can be submitted until March 15, 2018.

All submitted works must be released under license Commons Attribution-ShareAlike, Creative Commons Attribute or Creative Commons Zero. Of course, you should only submit your own work, not someone else's, and you should follow the Ubuntu Code of Conduct.

You can submit your work today on Flickr, in the Wallpapers, Videos and Music groups. If you're not sure what to create, check it out wiki page of the Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase for more details.

The Ubuntu 18.04 LTS will be released on April 26, 2018.
