Re: [Ubuntu Manual] Screenshots of the manual

 

Hi John,

What exactly was wrong with the Advanced Topic screenshots? I ask,
because I realize that I didn't follow the instructions listed to the
letter.  Let me know if it was the quality of the pictures or the
content in them--as I was running ubuntu in a virtual machine, and
taking screenshots directly from my host.  If it was a quality issue,
then I'll try to take them from inside of the virtual machine (as it's
set up to the required specifications), and hopefully they'll be
acceptable. If it was the content (hostname or other things) let me
know, so I can make the appropriate changes before I take the new set.

Thanks, and have a great week.:)
Patrick.

P.S. It will probably be Tuesday or Wednesday before I can get them
redone.
