#208694 — Screenshots of Debian software

Hi All

Looking at https://screenshots.debian.net/  the Debian project seems to
want some screen shots of different applications etc.

I have taken some screenshots for various purposes and since seeing this
have started to rename, organize  and keep them in case the are useful
for this part of the project.

These are currently stored on Salsa at

https://salsa.debian.org/zleap-guest/screenshots

Is anyone here, on the team that deals with screenshots please,  I am
probably far better at taking the screenshots, renaming them etc and
uploading them to salsa,  where I am happy for someone to download them
and upload to the screenshot repository as required.  please use which
ever license is appropriate.

If we need a volunteer to do the uploading to the above site, I am _not_
offering to volunteer as I am trying to do other things relating to the
project.  I can however promote the position as long as a job spec (as
such) can be written that is clear, concise and explicit as to what that
person needs to do,  skills required etc.  Maybe as a sub page of the
screenshots page.  You need to be clear as to what you are looking for
and the skills required.  The link to this could be 'want to help please
click here.'

I can then try and approach people who may be able to help or send out
the information to a wider group who may be able to help.

Paul

In this reply I am copying Christoph Haas, who originally set up the
Screenshots project, and also the Debian Games Team, who have made heavy
use of it in the past. Perhaps someone will be interested in exploring
moving your screenshots into the screenshots.debian.net collection.

However, at the moment, you have in your collection only pictures for
brasero, devede, libreoffice, and rocksndiamonds, all of which have
screenshots on screenshots.debian.net already. So it's unlikely anyone
will spare the time to ferry these particular ones over.

It's very easy to upload screenshots to screenshots.debian.net. Possibly
less work than organising them in a git repository. I just did one to
test and it took seconds (http://screenshots.debian.net/package/crispy-doom)

Hi

Thanks for this, I have cc'd Christoph Haas and the games team in to
this too.

I will be creating more screenshots and will add them to my repository
and they are then open to be used generally.

I will also look at what we are short of and see if I can help in that
respect too.

Paul

Nice idea, but "no screenshot available" when I sent ff to look.

Ditto (no screenshot available).

Maybe it has to be "moderated" before it appears, so we won't stumble on 
Phyllis Diller in the buff or something.

Now you are telling your age Curt. She's been gone for a while, but I can 
remember when I thought she looked pretty good despite her "fright wig" 
which was her own hair.  But that was all part of her "shtick".

So I select "without" (a screenshot) and fall upon a million libs.

 Question: How do you take a screenshot of a lib?
 Answer:   You normally don't, that's why they're missing.

I looked at 'About':

 Everybody (sic)* can take screenshots and upload them. Our admin team will just
 review your changes before they become publicly visible.

So Dowland's shot of Phyllis is doubtless under review.

> Cheers, Gene Heskett

* Everybody probably can't, but anybody can.
