So long as you reference the proper location in your HTML code, you can put them anywhere. However, it's probably a good idea to create a separate directory off of the /www/ directory so you can keep everything organized.
You should place them in a separate folder called Images. Reason being this will keep your files organized and remember when coding in the html file check the path of the images folder.
In the www file you can create file and put you pictures and set picture path. Don't set path early.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
