There was no really good reason (on legal copyright grounds) not to use the Windows XP screen captures because Microsoft would routinely insert their boilerplate copyright notices, although Microsoft would never waste its time and effort going after those who used screenshots with any Windows O/S theme. Even for a competing product like OOo/LO.

Eventually, I might repackage (and rewrite them a bit) the LO documents according to my own specifications in US Letter page size. When doing so, I might reinsert the XP silver theme (or, perhaps, use another theme) for any screen captures, primarily to get some practice using some proprietary screen-capture apps.

Even tho it might not be the theme we eventually agreed on at least they are not
Windows screen-shots so there is no real need to change them this time.  The
"Windows xp theme" is the silver(ish) one on Ubuntu?

Yeah. I should have gone through it more carefully. I got it now, but I have a
doubt about the Impress guide. The images had been updated by Song with Ambiance
theme, so they need to be updated with windows xp theme now?  Sorry for being
too doubtful..
I don't see any particular reason to do anything to Song Chuan's
work... Unless you have a particular idea in mind? If not, the idea
would simply be to continue working on what is left to be done.

That would be my 2 cents...

@Song Chuan: Song  Chuan, would you have any comments or suggestions?
