Ok guys. I've been working hard and finally finished my first wallpaper for Fedora. Because I am new to this team, I don't know where to post it! It most likely is a simple answer, but I don't want to post it to photobucket and have it stolen or something only to find out there is a place where I'm supposed to put it. ^^

It is quite impossible to avoid stealing, even have license of release stated.
Host on deviantart.com might be okay? It has options to release with CC license.

Ok thanks for the help.I got it all done now. Here is the link if you want to check it out. It is my first wallpaper here so obviously not the best. http://linxguy16.deviantart.com/art/Fedora-Wallpaper-1-145039699 Tell me what you think :D

Ooh, I like it. What did you make it in? I was wondering if I could get the svg source (I'd like to try layering the "freedom + infinity = fedora" part over the F12 background to see how it looks) but looking closely at the image shows some artifacts around the edges of the "f" in 'freedom,' so I'm guessing you did this with the GIMP?

yes, i did do it in gimp, therefore, I don't think it is possible to give you the svg source from there. I hope to improve the quality of the work for next time :D

Thanks for creating a Fedora wallpaper!
Overall your design concept is nice. Where did you get those logo graphics, though? Those are from the first drafts of the Fedora logo and are not the actual Fedora logo (the f's ends for example, are much longer than in the actual logo)
You need to email logo@fedoraproject.org to obtain the correct artwork for the Fedora logo:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Logo/
You also should follow the logo usage guidelines when creating works involving the Fedora logo:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Logo/UsageGuidelines
I know this all sounds like a total bummer, but, we have to be very careful about how we treat the Fedora logo and brand which makes creating artwork using it particularly challenging.
Thanks, ~m

In order to be accepted by the project, your graphics should be released under a Free license, we use the most CC-BY-SA or CC-BY, so they can't be really stolen if you shared them freely :p
On a technical side, it does not matter where an image is posted: Fedora servers, photobucket, deviantart, flickr... if the file is online, anybody can download and use it.
A convenient place to post content is fedorapeople.org, which you can use *after* signing into FAS (https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/user/new), but is also OK to spread Fedora love on various artistic communities/networks (deviantART, Flickr etc.)
