An Operating System is an Operating System, you can't take a shot of it. The only screenshots you can take are applications ones. GNOME, KDE, Mozilla etc... run under FreeBSD, providing screenshots of these apps do not help people to decide if an OS is "good" or "bad" for them. It's like judging a book according to his cover. Some parts of the project "provide" screenshots: http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/screenshots.html for example, but it's just GNOME screenshots, you can have the same look under any Linux distribution or any OS running GNOME. But if someone has a Linux kernel screenshot, I want it :)) Marc
