What makes a good screenshot?
Tips for a good screenshot:
- Include all of your screen
- If it's a website please include the web address at the top so we have context on what page you are looking at
- If there's lots going on - annotate the screenshot (see below)
- If there's multiple steps use a screen recorder
When you get a screenshot please ensure you show us the entire screen you are on. If you are on a website we also like to see the address bar at the top as this provides context as to what page you are on.
