What about setting up a Launchpad project, desktop-screenshots, and
associating an open bzr branch, writable by all Ubuntu members (or
some other suitably large group) sort of like
lp:~planet-ubuntu/config/main?

I took the liberty of registering
https://launchpad.net/desktop-screenshots and seeded it with the text
of Mark's original email.  I'm happy to transfer ownership to whoever
wants it ;-)  The bling-brigade, perhaps?

Attached to this project is a bzr branch owned by ubuntumembers:
 * lp:~ubuntumembers/desktop-screenshots/uploads

Any Ubuntu Member should be able to branch that, and upload their screenshots.

A hypothetical screenshots.ubuntu.com could pull from that bzr branch
on a regular basis and arrange them appropriately.

Cheers,
