Well, I never discard the original that I made to suit my own tastes
or for my diner blog or travel blog.  Different versions for different
purposes.

Re-editing for the PPG is an educational process for me, just like
posting PESOs here are reviewing the comments and suggestions.  I am
old enough, and stubborn enough, that I am in no real danger of
changing my personal tastes and standards to suit others.  It's useful
on many levels, however, to find out how others react   to an image I
created.
