Keep posting them, but we should just copy the text and link to the source instead of screenshooting a couple of sentences like my mom, no? This would save some disk space and power consumption as well.

Here’s the correct way:

Take a photo of your screen with a camera.
Have the film developed or print that photo if you have a digital camera.
Make necessary highlights with a pen.
Scan the paper.
Upload the file here.

I swear if I get another Word document with nothing more than a screenshot pasted inside I’m going to run off a cliff. Everyday at work. Microsoft must love this.
