That's one thing that surprises me a little - It seems many people don't know how to propertly take a screenshot.  I've also seen people posting photos from their smartphone where it's just a screenshot of their smartphone to show a photo they were looking at in their web browser - Complete with their phone's top statusbar and black bars in the web browser, etc..  It seems many people also don't know that you can save the actual photo to your device and you can post that rather than taking a screenshot.  And if you're taking a screenshot, at least edit it to crop out only the thing you want to share.
