Thanks, Nacin! We'll be sure to add this to the 3.5 Guidelines revisions. It's an easy-enough change. :)<div><br></div><div>Also, I do believe Theme-Check checks screenshot.png dimensions.</div><div><br></div><div>
On a related note: will multiple screenshots make the cut for 3.5?</div><div><br></div><div>Chip<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Sep 6, 2012 at 12:05 PM, Andrew Nacin <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:wp@andrewnacin.com" target="_blank">wp@andrewnacin.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi all. For WordPress 3.5, we've decided to add HiDPI ("retina") theme screenshot support. Turns out, all we need here is a change in the guideline. Rather than recommending 300x225, themes should start using an image that is 600x450. Same 4:3 W:H ratio, just doubled.<div>
<br></div><div>This would *not* be a new screenshot-2x.png file. Rather, the standard screenshot.png file should now be 600x450. For non-retina devices, the browser will simply scale this down. Also note that this is fully compatible with previous versions of WordPress, as we have *always* placed height and width limitations on the screenshot via CSS. So you can start doing this now, and it will look good in 3.4.</div>
<div><br></div><div>An aside, it would be pretty cool if Theme Check checked dimensions of screenshot.png (if it does not already).</div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div><br></div><div>Nacin</div>
