Hi Kevin, et al. I think the idea of Screenshot Editors (or at least people who are solely responsible for getting screenshots for the manuals) is a great idea. First off, it will ensure that we have consistent screenshots throughout. And secondly, it will reduce some of the workload on the authors/editors. And, if/when we get more languages available for translation, we can have a person from each language who's responsible for getting the screenshots in their language.
Also, adding the position to the website won't be an issue. Essentially it's just a rewording of the Author's page (or the Editor's page), specifying screenshots, and a separate button for the link. Just wanted to toss my .02 worth in on this. Have a great day:) Patrick.
