Ok, so png is the best file format, that's a given. However, what's the best image to use, an AME screenshot or an ingame screenshot?

For discussion in this forum I think and AME screenshot is fine, but for the wiki page and IB's pack discussions it seems that an ingame shot is best. What're your thoughts?

reminder: AMR can produce a bitmap directly from an .igc file and it's a command line tool so it can be integrated within a (web) server to automatically produce/update map screenshots.and AMR source is available to tweak it to your needs.
