Hello Hivers, Hello LMACians!
Before we kick off the next round, I'd like to introduce a change for how our contest's prize pool is composed. My aim is to correlate the size of the prize pool at least to some extent to the value that all stakeholders attribute to the LMAC and thus to our community. The more votes our community is able to attract, the higher the prize pool should be.
How to achieve that? By allowing the LMAC community to receive beneficiaries from the participant's post which will then be added to each week's prize pool.
Why making this change? Well, with this dynamic component every additional vote that goes into our community will incrementally increase the prize pool. I hope that this will provide a convincing incentive for all participants to actively advertise the LMAC to their communities and surroundings as to draw as much attention to what we do here as possible.
For now I wish to keep it voluntary for everyone whether beneficiaries are set or not. However, if a participant whishes to benefit from the additional prize component their respective entry post needs to set the LMAC community account (-> 
Now let's see how this works and let us dive into the next round! And let me know in the comments if anything remains unclear or if you need more info for how to set beneficiaries.
And now, welcome everyone to Round #33 of Let's Make a Collage! 🎨 🖌
For this week's challenge I have chosen a photo which I took many years ago during a visit of Palma de Mallorca, the regional capital of the beautiful Spanish island Mallorca. The picture shows the west side of the cathedral La Seu, in front of it an intriguing steel sculpture.
