I have a Motorola wi-fi on my laptop connecting to the Internet through my
main computer... Is it also possible to connect to my main computer's files,
such as picture files, and download them to my laptop?

Yes, if you don't have one already, buy a wireless router and enable
networking.

Describe your WiFi and main machine setup (what OS, router, etc.) for us,
please. I suspect that you want to enable file sharing on both machines.
