Hi Friends,
Since 0.91 has been released, the website is need of screenshots showing the new features.  I suspect there will be a quick response to this, so work fast!

If you don't have an account on the website, attach your SVG file here, and I'll get it uploaded for you  :D 

Edit
Here's the screenshot page, if you want to see the kind of things they want.  https://inkscape.org/en/about/screenshots/

It's loading extremely slowly ...
But the Fill & Stroke dialogue is different as in this screen shot.
I have to go back an re-read which options should be new :)

Yes, one of my pet peeves with computer software development.  It seems like programmers just can't resist the urge to fix things that aren't broken!  Drives me absolutely up the wall  :hh:

But for the F/S dialog, it looks basically the same.  They just changed how the controls look.  They're still in the same places, and do the same thing as before.  Believe me, it could be MUCH worse!  (If you're a Firefox user, you know what I mean!)

Oh, now I understand.  If you'll look at the screenshots page on the Inkscape website, you'll see what they are a looking for.  It's not just screenshots of the dialogs of new features.  It's screenshots showing how you're using a new feature, in a drawing.  Like maybe you're doing a drawing where you need specific measurements, so you can use the Measurement tool, and make a screenshot of the whole Inkscape window, in the middle of using it.  It needs to be something fairly eye-catching, since the placement of that Screenshots page is meant as sort of an advertisement for Inkscape.  So maybe a drawing of a map, or I don't know.  I haven't actually used the Measurement tool yet.

It turns out not to be something that people are jumping on though.  So there's no rush apparently.  Although there is one new one for 0.91 https://inkscape.org/en/about/screenshots/.  And rats, that's exactly the one that I wanted to make a screenshot for!
