Hi!
I have no solution, but a related problem...
In LyX I canot use insert->graphics from the menu. I think this is
because LyX uses the graphics package and that it somehow conflicts with
the gb4e package that I also use. When I remove gb4e graphic-insertion
seems to work, but not the gb4e-stuff of course. I found a workaround to
this, using graphicxs and include pictures with ERT. It works, but LyX
does not seem to be capable to convert png to eps, when not using
pdflatex, which I believe it does when inserting throw the menu. And I
prefer not to use pdflatex, because it seems to make the quality of my
xypic-figures quite bad.
So then I have to manually convert png to eps for my screenshot. I tried
to convert both with the Gimp and with the imagemagick convert tool, but
both ways the quality of the eps-images are quite bad.
So, any ideas? Either how to produce nice xypic with pdflatex, or nice
eps screenshots from png..

A document requires screen shots as illustrations. I've used The
GIMP to
capture the window, scaled the result to 100 pixels/inch resolution,
and a
size of 4 inches wide. Then it's saved as a .png file. The document will
almost certainly be printed by readers on a laser or color inkjet
printer.
I'm seeking comments on whether there is a better way to represent
these
images. That is, should the resolution be higher? Is a different file
format
a better choice? They are raster images to begin with, so conversion to a
vector format such as .eps will almost certainly result in resolution
loss.
Your experience counts! What have you to suggest?
