Right now we don't have the infrastructure to add externally-developed
packages; what you probably want to do is package the backgrounds up for
the original Fedora Linux at fedora.us, and then once the merged project
infrastructure exists the backgrounds would become a package in Fedora
Extras.

The other option is to merge backgrounds into the desktop-backgrounds
package currently in Core, the process for that would be to convince
Garrett to add them. The idea of that package is to have a small number
of diverse/nice backgrounds that might appeal to different people, so
Garrett probably won't take most submissions. 
(Unless we removed them, all but one or two of those space backgrounds
that used to be in there should really go.)
Still it can't hurt to offer your stuff to Garrett.
