+## Assets
+
+The assets directory provides two files that are used to represent plugin header images.
+
+When committing your work to the WordPress Plugin Repository, these files should reside in their own `assets` directory, not in the root of the plugin. The initaly repository will contain three directories:
+
+1. `branches`
+2. `tags`
+3. `trunk`
+
+You'll need to add an `assets` directory into the root of the repository. So the final directory structure should include *four* directories:
+
+1. `assets`
+2. `branches`
+3. `tags`
+4. `trunk`
+
+Next, copy the contents of the `assets` directory that are bundled with the Boilerplate into the root of the repository. This is how the WordPress Plugin Repository will retrieving the plugin header image.
+
+Of course, you'll want to customize the header images from the place holders that are provided with the boilerplate.
