I don't see the point in screenshots in these articles either. Stock GNOME is always stock GNOME
maybe they change colorscheme(wich they did'nt:)), but is it worth a whole series of screenshots? ONE reason would be if they put in some nice GUI tools they want to show off, but most often it is the usual, with the clean desktop, some dialog, some OO.o shots, a firefox/konqi web-browsing shot.. same with KDE distros as well, this was not a rant on only GNOME distros
Yeah, that's what I mean. If there's nothing especially new in terms of GUI appearance, screenshots are kinda pointless. And frankly, they get my hopes up!
Afterall, nobody loves new GUI eye candy more than me!
