Until you publish your story, it lives only on your computer--either in the browser or in the desktop app. The Cookbook recommends two free hosting services--Borogove.io and Itch.io. Both allow you to choose whether your project is publicly available or restricted. Itch.io will allow you to upload a folder containing your Twine story and any associated media that you have saved on your computer.

The Internet contains millions of images, and it is usually easy to download a copy of an image for reuse in a presentation or some other project. 
Keep in mind two things:

• Image quality: Many online images are formatted to load quickly on screen, and they may look pixilated if you enlarge them for a presentation slide or print them in a paper.
• Copyright: While using an image in an assignment is generally allowed under educational fair use, images online are protected by copyright just like other types of creative works (books, videos, music, etc). It's good practice to provide credit (attribution) when you use someone else's image, and if you know where to look, you can search specifically for images that come with permissions to reuse them.

Creative Commons

Many of the images online that can be freely reused have something called a Creative Commons license. Look for the CC logo as you are searching. There are different types of CC licenses, but all of them allow you to use a CC-licensed work for noncommercial purposes (like education), as long as you credit the person who created it.

Try some of the following sites to find high-quality, reusable images licensed with Creative Commons or similar open licenses. When reusing an image you found online, it is always recommended and often required that you attribute the image to the original creator/source. 

Google Image Search

You can search for reusable images in Google's image search by going to Tools and selecting Creative Commons under Usage Rights.
