Yep, Carsten did volunteer. Of course he hoped there would be one person more also. I would volunteer, but last time my screenshots all came out blurry. Probably an issue with how I took them. So, until I know that it's fixed, I wouldn't want to waste everyone's time. (That and I would only be ab

I forgot to mention also, that this would clear up the issue about user names. Instead of every author having to set up their computers with a fake persona (user name), only a small group would have to. The rest of the authors/editors could just use their normal accounts to do their chapters/secti

Hi Kevin, et al. I think the idea of Screenshot Editors (or at least people who are solely responsible for getting screenshots for the manuals) is a great idea. First off, it will ensure that we have consistent screenshots throughout. And secondly, it will reduce some of the workload on the autho
