Sounds good to me. So, should we move the images to the hbase-site repository ( https://github.com/apache/hbase-site) and move the README itself to the HBase Book? I think we can do it in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-22986.

To avoid this, I think we need to remove the images from the history of the source repository maybe by using filter-branch? https://git-scm.com/docs/git-filter-branch What do you guys think?
