WineHQ made a short how-to ("How to do a sexy screenshot") at the end of this link

As the screenshots of KDE at KDE.org often show a modified desktop, not the default one, first time users often get a wrong impression of KDE. Often I wonder what the screenshots want to show. 
I think the usability project shall provide a Screenshot how-to with good and bad examples, shipped with the screenshot utility. That is common guideline howto make nice screenshots that show what you intend to show. I also believe screenshots at KDE.org have to improve. Common guidelines can help.
