Already Reiwa 8 for several hours - I manually renewed the certificate for my site, the pic should display without problems now - my provider didn't notify me, that the automatic renewal after a year didn’t work. For the uma-doshi, I made a collage of all horse kesho mawashi I could find, in the middle a mix of standard elements for a year of the horse I found appealing.

The top row are kesho mawashi of (later) yokozuna, 2 from yokozuna sets, thus without shikona, else only one has the name of the horse instead of the shikona on it, I put it below my avatar, a keiba kesho mawashi of Oshoma. I covered all direct naming of the donating sponsors.

Most shikona should be readable, feel free to ask, if you want to know about one you can't decipher.
