The title says it all. I'm relatively new here, so I've never had the inclination to do it until now. Can somehow explain to me how it's done?

the contest tends to provides that information? Read it, and if it doesn't say so, you can always ask right there. Usually it's done by pming the work in question to the person holding the contest...

When someone runs a contest on the site, they usually have all of the information in the first post! I suggest you go back to the contest thread and reread the first post. Usually, you post the link to your work in the contest thread so the judge(s) can evaluate it. :)

If that doesn't help, PM the person who started the contest and they'll help you out!

It had a perfectly round door like a porthole, painted green, with a shiny yellow brass knob in the exact middle. The door opened on to a tube-shaped hall like a tunnel: a very comfortable tunnel without smoke, with panelled walls, and floors tiled and carpeted, provided with polished chairs, and lots and lots of pegs for hats and coats—the hobbit was fond of visitors. The tunnel wound on and on, going fairly but not quite straight into the side of the hill —The Hill, as all the people for many miles round called it—and many little round doors opened out of it, first on one side and then on another.
