screenshots.debian.net







Very exciting idea - imagine that :

you're looking for a vector application for Linux Debian
you fire up Synaptic then filter through the vector applications read the description and so on ... but then you have this little screenshots for each application. It's brilliant, it's new (then ending my little example considering all vector application you wisely choose inkscape because it rocks).


Okay, back to earth now, this new project is still in beta phase read this for more detail - Basically the current status is all about gathering those precious screenshots.

So if you have some spare time post a few screenshots today - it's easy to contribute
check the list of packages without screenshot and then Just launch your favorite application - type 'gnome-panel-screenshot -i' from a terminal box then select Grab the current window (just like below)

Then capture a screenshot of your favourite application and post the result to
screenshots.debian.net/upload
It currently takes less than a day for your contribution to be reviewed/checked.

As the developer said on the project page "Whether you are a developer or not - we appreciate if you upload screenshots."

www.monbeausapin.org



Hi, just a little announcement - www.monbeausapin.org has been launched by 2 French artists and the goal of this website is to collect money for the red cross.

So "poor" kids that don't like christmas time ; because they don't receive any gifts, or presents and that make them even more sad because everyone else does (or so they think) ... will have a chance to enjoy it as the next guy.

Christmas is a tough, stressful period ... but doesn't have to be like that.

So just go visit the website, post comments, see for yourself...
