Uploading the Artwork "Source"

For artwork created in GIMP, you may now upload the source files in your post, if you like.

Compression Required

To conserve bandwidth and storage in the community, please save your XCF as either .xcf.bz2 (smallest size) or .xcf.gz. The community accepts either of those two formats.

If your XCF is very large, please consider using an external service to upload your file, as the limit for uploads is 4 MB.

Tips

  • Be sure to fill out metadata for your XCF.
    • This can be found in File → Properties inside GIMP.
  • Specify the license in your post.
    • For instance, wallpapers in Ubuntu MATE should be licensed under CC-BY-SA.

Thanks to @tiox for the suggestion
