Hi Bernhard,
thanks for managing this ...

It is based on the Clearlooks theme (on GNOME, ports to KDE and Windows
XP available too) with a definite font with weight and size (Liberation
bold 11 pt for window titles) and adds a LibreOffice palette color
(Libre Green 2) for highlighted areas like windows headers.
If you want to establish a recommendation to use this modified theme for
screenshots, please add +1 here:
+1
Note: I still think that LibreOffice Green 1 would be more pleasing to
the eye in the long run, but Green 2 is okay as well.
Others want to propose a broad variety of different themes on
screenshots in order to show the diversity of LibreOffice and it's
possibility to be installed on different platforms in the documentation
screenshots.
They fear that new contributors might turn away when they find out, that
there is a recommendation how to create screenshots for documentation
and marketing.
If you prefer a way without caring about recommendations, just creating
the screenshots you like, please add your +1 here:
-1
Note: Guidelines help, even if there are sometimes reasons to not
enforce them (e.g. for the new features section, if only a quickly
made screenshot by a developer is available and we lack time to re-do
it.)
By the way, the question itself is a bit hard to understand - so please
guys be aware that
-1 = recommendation is good, and
+1 = no recommendation wanted.
A second question has been raised by Marc inside the thread:
He asked for a unified cursor style to be included in thee package.
His proposal: Use a standardized cursor theme like OpenZone white for
the screenshots and include this cursor in the theme for the colors.
If you agree with him on the cursor/pointers, please sign here for a
second time with +1:
-1
Changing cursor themes is an additional step and usually not required
when taking screenshots (assuming that the cursor doesn't vary too much
between the operating systems). But, if somebody adds this as an
optional recommendation and provides a package for that - why not use
it?
On the other hand I think that most platforms provide similar pointers
and cursors, so this part doesn't need to be included in this voting.
I'd propose a more inclusive wiki page including a recommendation to use
a consistent cursor. -1
Cheers,
Christoph
