We’re hoping to release TiddlyWiki v5.3.6 on Friday 15th NOVEMBER 2024. As usual, we’re holding a competition to design the banner image that is shown on the splash screen and within the opening HelloThere tiddler.
Ideally, the artwork should reflect some of the changes in the new version. I’ve updated the release note for the prerelease:
Entries will be accepted until Sunday 10th November 2024 at 8am UK time. We will then hold a vote here to determine the winner.
The other rules/guidelines for the competition are:
The version number must be clear and readable even when the banner is shown at a reduced size
The version number must use the correct punctuation including the “v” prefix and clear full stops between the numbers
The image must be a PNG or JPEG of exactly 560x315 pixels
Note that the image is displayed at a smaller size on tiddlywiki.com , so check that your artwork is legible at the display size (the scaling is done in order to yield good quality on hi-dpi displays)
The image need not include the word “TiddlyWiki”. The banner image is only used in contexts where it is clear that it is about TiddlyWiki
Feel free to enter an updated version of artwork that was a runner-up in a previous competition

Good luck! I’ll be looking forward to seeing the entries.
I’m just adding a reply to NUDGE this post again. The dates had not been consistently corrected. (December was still the month mentioned near top of post.)
I’ve edited post to specify November consistently.
Created using Microsoft Designer with AI assistance. Unfortunately, I could not create a high-quality image, but like to keep the ball rolling
Many people contributing to create TW refers to MWS plugin!
I like it. But you can remove the “TiddlyWiki” text and make the version number much bigger.
Also TiddlyWiki is a brand name, which can not be changed.
It’s worth pointing out that one of the objectives for the new release banner is that it reflects some of the new features or improvements. We’re not trying to make a generic TiddlyWiki banner, it’s very specifically to draw attention to the new features in this release.
