[libreoffice-design] [VI] Consistent theme for screenshots

Hi all,

Marc mentioned a certain UI theme for screenshots in the documentation 
team [1], there is another thread on discuss@de.LibO about the best UI 
theme for their documentation [2], Italo wants screenshots that serve 
our Windows users [3] and the wiki recommends screenshots for the 
website with a different theme [4].

In my eyes it is quite important to find a solution that fits all our 
needs in documentation (and its localizations), marketing material, 
website, press kit and any other place we need screenshots.

Consistency is a relevant part of Visual Identity and therefore I'd like 
to ask you all provide your thoughts on

1) how such a UI theme should look like

2) what other conditions should be met

3) which existing UI theme would serve best as standard for screenshots

Do you think these 3 questions could lead to a consensus on a theme to 
be used? Should we add more points?

I'd like to see this discussion to take place here on the list - and 
send invitation mails to the teams involved in such a decision 
(documentation [Sigrid told be she would take this part], website, 
marketing, accessibility, projects, de-discuss) to join this discussion.

Feel free to spread the message to any other team you think should be 
involved in this topic.

Best regards Bernhard
