In the beginning of WPTRT there were themes which had as screenshot
their header, a logo or some random image :) Hence the requirement
came from. <br>
In general the screenshot is a powerful feature which represents
just at a glance what the user will get (or expect) of a particular
theme. So as WPTRT reviewers, we have to be sure that user will get
that what he/she sees. <br>
IMHO it's OK if the scrshots represent as much as possible, as long
as they are real. <br>

<div>I am of the opinion that "the Screenshot must be of a
reasonable facsimile" of the theme with "default settings"</div>
<div>does not mean that it must be completely bare! i.e no
sidebar widgets, slider and features that take not much</div>
<div>effort to configure/enable.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>"Default settings" can be user configurable and off by
default - does it harm to highlight the themes capabilities</div>
<div>if those are it's main features and purpose?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>"Default settings" can also mean a simple drag and drop of
a widget in place, a check box or two to enable a feature</div>
<div>and the likes - I believe this constitute a "reasonable
facsimile" presentation of the theme.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Advanced settings are the ones that must be discouraged as
it would take a whole lot of configuration on the part</div>
<div>of the end user to get their site looking anywhere near
what a screenshot with the advanced features highlighted.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I could be wrong with this opinion and would therefore love
to hear your views from both side of the fence - as a </div>
<div>developer and as a reviewer :)</div>
