# Generating Screenshots
Images are the first way that a player viscerally connects to the game,
and so making our screenshots better leads to a direct increase in interest.
For us to continue to generate screenshots as the UI improves, we have a saved game named "ScreenshotGenerationGame" in the extraImages folder.
The easiest way to create screenshots is by:
- WRITE DOWN which file you're working on! They all look the same!
- Editing the gamesettings.json to the required height/width
- Loading the ScreenshotGenerationGame
- Centering on Elephantine
- Selecting the top-right Keshik, then clicking on Elephantine
- Screenshotting the entire window
- Cropping the area off the top (I use Shutter on Ubuntu for the above 2 steps)
- Save!
Quick dimensions checklist for y'all!
- Github preview image - 1280*640
- Feature Graphic - Google Play - 1024*500 - best in 900x600 resolution (options - display)
- Itch.io image - 630*500 - best in 1050x700 resolution
