For the next digiKam releases, the digiKam team needs photographs for digiKam and Showfoto splash-screens. Proposing photo samples as splash-screens is a simple way for users to contribute to digiKam project. The pictures must be correctly exposed/composed, and the subject must be chosen from a real photographer’s inspiration. Note that we will add a horizontal frame to the bottom of the image as in the current splashes.
If somebody wants to contribute with nice photographs, you can take a look at the previous selected items and follow the instructions to contribute to the dedicated page.

The content is published in a dedicated web site, internationalized by the KDE translation teams.
