For a project like this, I'd prefer it to go onto the wiki (and
mediawiki.org is
fine; we [developers] control it). For bulk uploads, get a copy of the Commonist and just
point it at
mw.org
Internally, we use dropbox for the storage of asset files (.psd, .ai, etc.) because they
aren't allowed to be uploaded to our mediawiki instances.

Normally I try to upload screenshots to Commons, but it's kind of a pain in
the butt to upload MediaWiki screenshots there because you have use custom
licensing templates every time. So if you just want to upload locally to
MediaWiki.org like S was doing I think that works. We also considered just
opening a Dropbox folder, since this stuff doesn't necessarily need to be
permanent.
Please don't just use dropbox. Transparency and all...
I don't understand why
mediawiki.org would be easier to upload than
commons. Just use
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Upload
instead of uploadwizard and put your custom license tag in the
permissions field (and have the license drop down set to none).
