When you take screenshots:
- *Capture the most relevant area of the page.* Don't include unnecessary white
space or areas of the page that don't help illustrate your point. Also, don't
include the entire page if you don't have to, but also ensure the image
contains enough information to allow the user to determine where things are.
- *Be consistent.* Find a browser window size that works for you that also
displays all areas of the product, including the left navigation (usually >
1200px wide). For consistency, use this browser window size for your
screenshots by installing a browser extension for setting a window to a
specific size (for example,
[Window Resizer](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/window-resizer/kkelicaakdanhinjdeammmilcgefonfh/related?hl=en)
for Google Chrome).
space or areas of the page that don't help illustrate the point. The left
sidebar of the GitLab user interface can change, so don't include the sidebar
if it's not necessary.
- *Keep it small.* If you don't need to show the full width of the screen, don't.
A value of 1000 pixels is a good maximum width for your screenshot image.
- *Be consistent.* Coordinate screenshots with the other screenshots already on
a documentation page. For example, if other screenshots include the left
sidebar, include the sidebar in all screenshots.
