Thanks, @flaburgan . I don’t mind where it’s published - a blog was my first thought.

They would have to be reshared every now and then.
Then, we will have more thank yous as well, I think
@ryunoki are you aware of the tutorials on our project site? There are screenshots as part of the getting started series, and there’s a separate tutorial all about formatting via Markdown.
One thing to consider about images, which was pointed out after the tutorials were written: they are not translatable, which the project site is, so we should have as few images as possible there, or at least try to make them language non-specific (no text in them).
No, I’m rarely visiting the Wiki (so many different locations *sigh*).
What about storing the .xcf files from GIMP on GitHub? This way, the translation could be done by loading the file into a contributor’s GIMP and just edit the text field …
