How about uploading scaled down images to the wiki to show there, and
uploading the full sized images to fedorapeople and providing a direct
link to those on the wiki page with the gallery? May be a bit of extra
work, but it'd save strain on the wiki.

I was thinking about file sizes... the JPEGs straight from my camera are
about 4.5-5MB, resized at 1920x1200, they will get under 1.5MB, but this
is still quite large (and the file size will be a problem for the
package too).
That's a drawback of providing quality images we need to pay if we
decide to provide them. There are already packages in repos that have
size around 200MB and the extras backgrounds would fall into that kind
of packages too. Therefore I was thinking about splitting the package
into sub-packages as per the (sub-)categories listed on the wiki + plus
providing meta-packages to e.g. install all sub-categories of the
specified category, or everything. That would be nicer to our users.
Maybe even make separate packages for wide-screen wallpapers as people
with 16:10 displays usually do not need 4:3 wallpapers and vice-versa.
Another itchy thing is update of such packages. In environments with
yum-presto the issue would not be big, but for standard fedora
environment as it is now it means a lot of d/l with every update. That
would mean we'd need to keep the updates low and/or rather than making
sub-packages for categories, make the fully separate packages (but keep
the sub-categories-subpackages).
Btw. it is good thing to have upstream in more convenient place than
wiki/rpm, therefore making a fedorahosted.org project for that might be
a good idea. What do you think?
Any ideas/comments on that matter?

Please do not attach large files to the mail, always try to keep the
file size under control when attaching to a mailing list.
Please upload your files to the wiki and add the wallpapers here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/Wallpaper_Extras
(I just approved your membership request in FAS so you should be allowed)
As for content, we accept it if: 1. it has an acceptable license
(CC-BY-SA should be OK) and 2. is not completely unfit in the context.
Macro photography may work as backgrounds, so go ahead.

The text there is for ordinary humans so it should not be hard for you
to understand what the license is about.

I haven't uploaded anything on the new wiki yet, but as I understand it,
you should upload the image to wiki first (use same name structure for
the image names as nicu did, e.g "Wallpaper-nicubunu-hay.jpg") and then
let it display on the page (you can follow nicu's example). To upload go
to TOOLBOX > Upload file (which gets you to
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Special:Upload ) and follow through the
steps. To add it to the page, just hit Edit (you need to be logged in)
and follow the already established structure of the page.

In that case you may want to make it like this:
<gallery>
Image:Wallpaper-nicubunu-cactus.jpg|A cactus
Image:Pink_for_Pink.jpg|Pink for Pink
</gallery>
But as Martin said in a previous message, is a good idea to indicate
somehow that the image is a wallpaper, ant I thought using the file name
is a good solution.
