Key Takeaways

Actionable points curated for this category.

01

Capture clean, consistent source

Use window-only capture, hide desktop clutter, align to whole pixels, and standardize resolution across a set.

02

Redact data safely

Prefer solid blocks or heavy pixelation over light blur; cover extra margin and double-check at 200% zoom.

03

Crop tight and add intentional margins

Remove unnecessary chrome; keep a small, even padding to focus attention and support clean layouts.

04

Annotate with restraint

Use one accent color, concise labels, and step numbers; avoid overlapping callouts and excessive arrows.

05

Export for the right channel

PNG for UI and text, JPEG/WebP for photos; compress responsibly, keep 1x/2x sets when needed, and name versions clearly.

06

Strip metadata and verify privacy

Remove timestamps and metadata on export; review thumbnails and previews to ensure nothing sensitive remains.
