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