Hmmm, after thinking some more about this I need to add: my intention in 
running the CCP4 user wiki is not that it should be a dump site for 
random stuff. So please don't consider the wiki as an upload site for a 
file, just for sending its URL to CCP4BB, and to forget about it 
afterwards once there are answers. As others said, there are plenty of 
free and anonymous servers available for such purposes.

Rather, anybody who uploads a file (e.g. PNG with mysterious electron 
density) also takes the responsibility to properly document the problem, 
and hopefully its solution, in the mentioned article. (It's not 
difficult to learn how to upload a file and include it in a wiki 
article, and annotate it.)

In this way, everybody benefits. That's the idea of a wiki.
