No images #2

There are no images of the distributions. Follow the instructions in CONTRIBUTING.md to add photos. See CHECKLIST.md for what distros I would like to start on.

A way to automate that task through some virtual machine would be great.

@RiderExMachina saw your post on Reddit. I'll try to contribute a PR for these desktop screenshots this week. Not sure of a good way to automate this process at the moment - at least not in a way that actually saves time - but no matter, I'm familiar with virtualbox and have no problem running several simultaneous installations so I can run through your CHECKLIST.md and grab screenshots. Hope this helps.

That would be very helpful, thank you!

I do have images of Ubuntu Mate and XFCE now, I just need to check them off in CHECKLIST.md

jmrushing commented 5 years ago

@RiderExMachina can you post a link to an example image or images to give me an idea of the types of screenshots you need? From your description in CONTRIBUTING.md, I'm guessing that you want a fresh install, default background image, default icons, and maybe an open terminal window? Also (and forgive me if I misread) but do you just want one image per distro?

RiderExMachina commented 5 years ago

You have that correct, yes. Default options, there will be instructions on how to change looks at some point in the future.

I realized a little later that we probably wouldn't need a terminal window, but this is kind of what I'm looking for One of the clean desktop, one of the setting menu, and one of the application menu (if possible, Ubuntu MATE wouldn't let me get one of the application menu and I kinda gave up)
