To take a screenshot on an iOS device, hold the power and home buttons for a second or so until the screen turns white briefly. This image can be uploaded directly to the wiki, but it is preferable to transfer it to your computer for any needed editing. '''Do not''' edit or crop the image on iOS; it degrades the image quality. If needed, edit it on a computer before upload. If wanted, you can compress it using a lossless compression utility such as [http://www.punypng.com PunyPNG]. | To take a screenshot on an iOS device, hold the power and home buttons for a second or so until the screen turns white briefly.
