General Guidelines for using screen-shots and images.

  1. In general, images should be left justified with respect to the wiki page.
  2. White space within an image (i.e., bordering space) should be kept to a minimum (some border is fine but excessive border looks awkward).
  3. Resolution should be 96dpi or greater.
  4. Within a page, try to maintain relative size of screen-shots (again, avoid awkward appearance).
  5. Acceptible image types are jpeg, gif, and png.

For more information of images see the mediawiki page.
