add an element for screenshot graphics #17

Open courtney-rosenthal opened 9 years ago

We would like to do richer presentations of our civic applications.

A schema element for screenshots would be helpful.

Where should we host these images? imgur? This repo?

courtney-rosenthal commented 9 years ago

I think hosting is outside the scope of the Civic_Project spec. I suspect projects will either go for a hosting service like imgur or the project repo.

Some discussion points.

  1. I think we need to support multiple screenshots. i.e. the data element should be a list
  2. I think there should be a field for a brief description of the screenshot. Possibly "caption".
  3. I think we shouldo provide some sort of guidance for geometry, possibly a specific size. For instance, in the demo website project (https://github.com/open-austin/demo-website) we use 320px wide by 240px high. (That's 4:3 ratio.)
  4. Does anybody have an URLs of application galleries they like? I'd be interested in seeing how they present screenshot/thumbnail images.
