If there are any that would benefit from availability online, let us 
know. I think the screenshots of dialogs, for example, really don't need 
color.
It was a challenge for some things to change the wording of the original 
text when it talked about some colored feature of a picture.

If we can get a list of useful pics we can perhaps put together a tar 
ball of them. I have yet to see a finished product, so if nothing else 
we need some reference points like "the graphic on page N."
