-Sometimes it's easier to show than tell. So we've made sharing your screenshot easy. Just press the ''PrintScreen-button'' on your keyboard, select "host on imgur", click "ok" to upload your screen to Imgur, and then the next dialogue contains the link that points to it. Copy the link into your bug-mail, the IRC-channel, or the bug report. Only need to share your active window? Press ''ALT-PrintScreen''.+Sometimes it's easier to show than tell and so sharing your screenshot has been made easy.

 NB: Actually, sharing a screenshot is so easy that you may forget to check if there is something in the screenshot - in the background, top panel, left, right- that you may not want to share on Imgur. Remember: your screenshot on Imgur is for all the world to see.  NB: Actually, sharing a screenshot is so easy that you may forget to check if there is something in the screenshot - in the background, top panel, left, right- that you may not want to share on Imgur.
