Screen shot Standards for Future Documentation Module

After talking with Add1sun today I was prompted to write screen shot standards for a yet to be created documentation module. This module will use the future D7 help system and possibly the Advanced Help module for D6. These are fluid at the moment and definitely up for discussion.

• PNG format compressed. (need to add examples of png compressing tools)
• Screen shots are in the default drupal theme. In D6 this would be Garland. In D7 hopefully not.
• No wider than 550 pixels. And images are not to be resized. We need to keep it small enough so that popups will fit the screen shot without a horizontal scroll bar. Your best bet is to resize your window to 550px to know how wide you can make it. This will also wrap the help text to fit inside the screen shot.
• Screen shots should be take of the element and the help text only. If a fieldset is clickable we need a screenshot of the fieldset title. Groups of Checkboxes or radioboxes should be one screenshot. (We'll need a decision on permissions page. Yikes!)
• Screen shot should be no wider than 10px on any side of the element.
• Checkboxes should not be checked.
• Radioboxes being selected is ok
• Input boxes should not be filled in unless it is an edit screen.
• Naming convention: If it is a field then use the id of the element. example: edit-name.png If it is not a field then it is the title of the field lower cased and spaces are hyphenated. (This needs to be discussed as this was the hardest to come up with.)
• They will be added to folders that represent the path of the screenshot. example a screenshot of adding a page would be at node/add/page. If it's on an edit screen that has an id then use 0 for the id. So if we were editing node/1 then it would be at node/0/edit

That's what I have for now. Any more? changes?
