Agree in part, though I'd like to restrict screenshots to use only  
built-in xtras.  Message styles, contact list configurations, etc.  
should be present out of the box, with the exception of one or maybe  
two like the "Wildly Expressive!" one that shows how crazy you can  
get.  If we feel that an xtra really needs to be shown to show off  
what Adium can do, it should be considered for inclusion in the  
default package -- and we've already done that for 1.0.

Agree strongly with Dave that the Family screenshots in which  
thumbnail zooms rather than scaling is both more effective and  
artsier. :)
