In another [thread](https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/changing-the-font-colour-in-anki/16665/5), @peschi asked to include screenshots in the manual. @kleinerpirat pointed out the obsolescence issue.  
While he is right of course, I wonder if even out-dated screenshots may not be a considerable improvement.

They do make for an increased maintenance burden, so I’d prefer they were used judiciously than added everywhere for the sake of it - but by all means let’s add them where it makes sense. We don’t have the entire manual on one page anymore, so they should at least load quickly 🙂
