Reporting user interface bugs and features
------------------------------------------

If your bug or feature request touches on anything visual in nature, there
are a few additional guidelines to follow:

    * Include screenshots in your ticket which are the visual equivalent of a
      minimal testcase. Show off the issue, not the crazy customizations
      you've made to your browser.
    
    * If the issue is difficult to show off using a still image, consider
      capturing a *brief* screencast. If your software permits it, capture only
      the relevant area of the screen.
    
    * If you're offering a patch which changes the look or behavior of Django's
      UI, you **must** attach before *and* after screenshots/screencasts.
      Tickets lacking these are difficult for triagers and core developers to
      assess quickly.

    * Screenshots don't absolve you of other good reporting practices. Make sure
      to include URLs, code snippets, and step-by-step instructions on how to
      reproduce the behavior visible in the screenshots.

    * Make sure to set the UI/UX flag on the ticket so interested parties can
      find your ticket.
