Screenshots

Making screenshots useful as personal records

A screenshot without context is a picture. With the right details, it becomes a dependable personal record.

Include the address bar

Capture the full address bar so the screenshot shows exactly which page was displayed.

Include the time

Make sure the system clock or a visible timestamp appears, or record the time in the filename.

Name files consistently

Use names like '2026-10-28_omega-source_homepage.png'. Consistent names make files easy to find and sort.

Store with the log

Link each screenshot from the matching log entry so the context stays together.
