Those all look exactly like what I am thinking of. Basically, just decent work showing off some features. I guess seeing one of those pages loaded into Scribus as a screenshot would be nice. I like the Q4 2010 Page 8 with its open source message too. In the end, the screenshots aren't going to be needed in much higher quality than what you have on those pages.. its to give a flavour of what's possible as the narrative runs through. If the posters you mention have had the bleed settings, crop marks etc used, they might be useful to have a screenshot of. Craig
