Re: WANTED: A Gnome/Enlightenment screenshot



Hi, I'll make it short,

Oren, this is a trap where many people are falling in - specially with 
screenshots, and NOT regarding to Enlightment, GNOME or KDE - but any other 
application or an OS..

When people see a beautiful screenshot - they want to set their machine to be 
"just like that" (it happend to me when I showed some hebrew fonts with Anti 
Aliasing and right-to-left text editing with QT 3.0 preview to a friend in 
U.S - guess what he wanted? to set it "just like that" - go tell him that 
this is still being developed or needs special tweaking etc - and you're 
getting dissapointed person)...

Oren, I suggest for you to show things that people can see, and use - 
screenshots from Window Maker, GNOME, KDE, mixed enviroments etc... - that 
people can do and use, and not englightment..
