* High-quality, .png or .jpg formatting. As Dedalium is a browser game, many images can actually be saved by a right click -> Save Image As
* Proper cropping to display only the content desired in screenshots. Do not alter image sizes saved via right click, as it will allow for a more uniform look across similar pages.
* Properly formatted captions in Galleries (e.g. This item as seen… An image of... etc.)
