Hi biglew! Thanks for the interest :D There are a few ways and places to upload things, first of all, I suggest you upload them to OpenGameArt ( http://opengameart.org/ ), sothat more projects than syntensity can use them. Also, it has a nice preview feature that the syntensity asset system doesn't have at the moment.

If you want to upload the content to syntensity, then you'll have to import it. For models, you have to export animated ones as md5 or md2, but you can export static ones as obj's. Here is a tutorial ( http://wiki.syntensity.com/creating/models and http://cube.wikispaces.com). After that you can import them ingame by making a map, going into edit mode, hitting f8, creating a mapmodel and then right clicking on it, and setting the model to the path of your model. If it works, you can then create an asset on the website, and upload the tar'd version of that folder as an asset

As you can see, the latter process is rather difficult (but it should become easier as time passes), so if you just upload it to opengameart, and then give us a link here, we'll do it for you :)

Or you can hop on our irc channel (#syntensity at freenode.net) and then ask for help there

Thanks again for the interest, hope you manage!
