Just so I've got this right -- you want FEWER or NO
full size screenshots in the docs?
How about practically no screenshots at all, of any
size?
That would be fine by me, as they're a pain to make,
maintain, and translate.
* Subject 15 had one problem: the "Add Wallpaper"
button existed when
it shouldn't.
Let me guess... they thought that clicking "Add
Wallpaper" would... add the selected wallpaper to the
desktop?
I can see how they'd think that. I'd have thought it
too if I couldn't put my Geek hat on and bend my brain
to the interface.
And why does it say "wallpaper" anyway? Is the style
guide not clear enough?
"wallpaper: Do not use this term. Use the term desktop
background."
