There are at least three DM posters floating around (in the DM subversion, probably). I probably have some stuff to add, too (or to give to someone else to add).
Most of the DM posters, I feel, just provide text which would duplicate that in any article about it.
I do have photographs of some medieval resources, churches, sculptures, and the like. And I'm sure there are many on flickr. I have lots of photographs of medieval objects in the British Museum, but their usage guidelines say something about personal and private use...even though I've put them on my website and CC-licenced them.

All sounds good! Infiltrating other wikipedia articles and having them link to ours seems a good plan - experience shows here Ed.
on pix: Gabriel, I have your DC poster archived with all the others and could add that if you wish. James, do I remember you having a poster for DM on display at the PBW launch? If so that could be used as well.

Thanks for all the helpful comments.
I'm not sure, however, that "Digital Classics" is the most useful page to consider the parent article. Firstly because Medieval Studies is not a sub-discipline of Classics ;-) but both are subsdisciplines of the humanities. Digital Humanities (an already existing article) would be a much better parent. There are several Digital Humanities bodies, institutions, and publications (among which DM and DC) that *are*
listed
in Wikipedia, I think.
Pictures: yes! Anyone have pictures they want to put into the public
domain?

OK can we decide where to hang out. I've contacted Gabriel on the
Wiki,
but there are 3 pages it could be:
Digital classics Digital Classicist Digital Medievalist (once created, of course)
I suggest camping out at Digital classics as that is the parent
article.
You need to stake out a position by establishing a big parent article with lots of things linking **to** it. Talk pages don't count. The best way is to find related articles, add in a section or just a sentence that mentions digital techniques, then add a link to the
parent
article.
The parent article should be Digital classics in my view, but you
guys
are the experts.
Once you've got, say, 20 articles linking to it, then you have
something
no one will ever delete, because it is so embedded.
Next step is to make brief mentions of the 'child' articles. Then create the child articles. These should not be too much like
adverts.
Make a good case for the child article adding research or subject interest.
AND LOTS OF PICTURES!!!! Wikipedians love pictures, I can't
believe you
guys. This is a subject area that is crying out for some beautiful manuscript illustrations, carolingian whatsits, finials, you name
it. I
have stuff if you don't, but let's make a beautiful wonderful
article.
Wikipedia is all about plumage.
So, let's go.
