Well I'm glad I left our last challenge to run for another two weeks. @iodacasamia came in like a saviour for the second run with some entertaining entries for "pool" as well as some more serious styled submissions which would make good thumbnails.

Thank you @iodacasamia, 10 Hive is heading your way!
This round I'm adding a little something new. You may have noticed we use an image from @bantamuda each round as our thumbnail. He gets a small beneficiary for its use as a thank you. We'd like to be able to give others the chance to also feature in our thumbnail, so we're challenging you to come up with a new image for the challenge thumbnail that we can use. Stock Images isn't just about photography after all, so it would be great to rotate through a few different thumbnails each fortnight.
How it works
The challenges will run every two weeks. Each round we will have a topic or two for our contributors to try their hand at. We invite everyone to give their feedback on any entries and the best one will win Hive. Meanwhile, we ask anyone who has been looking to use images to tell us what they are looking for in the comments on this post and these suggestions will be put forward as the challenge topics for future competitions, with the suggesting account added as a beneficiary of that challenge post. They will also be invited to judge any entries and pick their favourite submission. If they also choose to use a submission, then all the better. You don't have to be currently looking for images to suggest them, you can suggest anything you may have used or wanted to use in the past or that you think might be in demand.
We invite people to add an upvote to their favourite suggestions and this will play a part in which ones will be selected first for the next challenge.
This round's challenge topics will be:
1: Homeschooling
2: Stock Images Challenge Background/Thumbnail
3: Mind (for blogs about mental health and psychology)
Rules
- No plagiarism (obviously).
- Think quality. Will someone want to use your image if it's blurry or badly laid out? Low quality posts will be muted in the search feature
- Make sure you're tagging your submissions correctly.
- Make sure your images fall within legal restrictions for stock images.
- Submit your entry links in a comment on this post, so we don't miss it.
- All images are accepted, not just photographs, as long as they are your own.
We have Hive for the winning entries. All quality entries will be nominated for curation if they aren't already well rewarded. Votes will be given on all good suggestions for images, with the chosen suggestion/s added as a beneficiary on the next challenge post.
Are you looking for specific stock images to use? Please view the Stock Images Main index where you can search by alphabetical order genre. This will be updated periodically as more images are added. We also now have a search feature, which is being improved as we go, so please feel free to give feedback on it.
A big thanks to everyone taking the time to support this community. I know it's not as active and flashy as people would like, but we will continue do what we can.
In particular thank you to @mipiano and @kattycrochet who continue to make time to help out here.

Thank you!
I'm glad to receive the award and possibly to know that some images can be used within Hive for user blogs.
No matter how small this community is, its input to authors and content creators is of great value to Hive.
I may have come up with a useful idea for the challenge n.3 ("Mind" - for blogs about mental health and psychology) ... (hopefully) and I'm going to make a post about it
Congratz @iodacasamia for winning this round with lovely pool pieces 🦆
Thanks!
