Screen Shots for Q&A
-
Hi there, Increasingly now I see questions in Q&A that link to other websites or user's own websites so that they can provide videos or screen shots of their problem. I, having done some work in web development, certainly appreciate screen shots as being a valuable source of reliable data about a problem because they do not rely upon human interpretation of the issue...but I am probably speaking to those who already know this and all the other reasoning (arguments? ;P ) around screen shots. Therefore, I would like to suggest hat Code Project provides a feature for uploading one or two screen shots with a Q&A question as this would not only make it more convenient to read/answer questions but would also encourage people to add screen shots which can be very valuable. Hoping to see this in the future, Ed :)

I'll second that. Just yesterday I needed to link to an image of a sketch I made to help OP with his question: http://www.codeproject.com/Answers/334970/Explain-the-following-lines-of-code-Doubly-Linked Regards, Manfred

With screen shots both question and answer can be understood quickly and clearly. I think particularly it will be useful for other readers who have not asked that question or answered that question.

Well if so that's good :) Seems like others would like it too. I had tried searching CP but all I got was a lot of messages on the bottom of articles. Is there a way to search a specific forum? If not, I feel another suggestion coming on... ;)

Like a textbox with the words Search this forum beside it? Big hint, top right of forum.
