Find me on IRC tomorrow during class and we'll talk. Henrik (cc'd) is 
'wonderer' on IRC and has been doing a lot of press kit stuff recently - 
he'd be another good person to talk with.

Finally, I'm forwarding your question to the mailing list - always feel 
free to ask questions on-list, because there are a larger number of 
people who may be able to help.

In answer to your questions, hosting the images on the wiki would be a 
good place to start. Here's how.

1. If you don't already have a FAS account, create one - 
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts.

2. The username/password you just made will allow you to edit pages on 
the wiki; you can log in at 
https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin (or the 
"log in" tab at the top right of any wiki page on 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki). If you're new to wikis, read 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Wiki. Matt and Darren or one of your 
classmates can also help you get familiar with wiki editing; in-person 
help is probably the fastest/easiest way.

3. The left sidebar of the wiki has a menu item called "Upload File." It 
is at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Special:Upload and I think the file 
upload dialog there is pretty self-explanatory. If it isn't, holler. :)

4. Poof! Your files are uploaded.

Hope this helps - I'll see you on IRC tomorrow. I don't know your IRC 
nick, so you'll have to give me a ping - I'm mchua. There will also be 
others around who may be able to help out.
