Replace the entirety of the steps of the “Unveiling Art” atomic action with the following

* Create a new blog post titled “Gallery [x] - [theme]” where where [x] is the round number of the previous round, and [theme] is the previous round’s theme. Such a post is known as a Gallery Post. Only the collector may comment on Gallery Posts.
* Secretly put each valid Art Submission sent in the previous round in a random order
* Reupload each image submitted in the previous round to a third party image sharing site which can be imbedded on the blog, scaling the image down if it poses any file size requirements so that it can be uploaded
* In the the secretly assigned order, make comment on that blog post for each entry. The comment should consist of the entries title, followed by the reuploaded image url, followed by any provided source. If multiple pictures have the same title, they should be given postfixes of (1), (2), (3), etc… in order to disambiguate them such that every entry on a single post has a different title
* Add a link to the newly created Gallery Post to the new Round Post, the contents of which reiterate what the previous round’s theme was

Replace the step “Update the gallery page from the round before the most recent one to include the names of each Sourcer (or Idle Sourcer) who submitted each piece of art on that page.” in the Totaling Votes atomic action with

Add a comment to the gallery page from the round before the most recent one which specifies the names of each Sourcer (or Idle Sourcer) who submitted each piece of art on that page and which piece of art they submitted

Replace “Vote Submission” with “Ballot Submission” wherever it appears in the “Totaling Votes” atomic action.

In “Art Submissions” replace

Titles are always flavor text, only used to identify the piece of art. The contents of a piece of art are also flavor text.

with

If an piece of art was taken from another source on the internet, a Sourcer is also encouraged to provide this source as part of their Art Submission. The entirety of an art submission including the title, image contents, and source is considered to be flavor text.

Reuploading is done for two reasons:

First, it ensures the image can properly be imbedded. Slack images, for example, cannot.

Secondly it prevents any funny business of someone switching the url out mid dynasty.
