+---
+This sidebar will feature selected posts from our forum’s "Show Your Stuff"
+category and other sources.
+
+To suggest a machine or project for the showcase, create an issue on our
+[website's github repository][github].  Submissions should consist of at least
+one photo or video, a short explanation, and include a link to the forum or a
+personal blog with more information.
+
+The showcase is not for promoting commercial products that use or include
+LinuxCNC, it is for promoting things that the LinuxCNC software enables
+our users to do.
