Why are all app screenshots taken on Mac/Safari?
Why all web app screenshots are depicted as if they they are taken on a Mac? I sell a desktop software aimed at photographers and Mac sales are not even 10% of Windows sales! People who pay for software seem to be using Windows but since it is considered cool to develop on Mac, developers put up screenshots of Mac. Why nobody puts up a screenshot taken on a PC or that shows some other browser like Firefox or Chrome or even IE?
- jaachan 13y agoSingle data point: A designer for a website I worked on made all the screenshots. That designer used a Mac. In general, designers may be more into Macs, and thus use them for screenshots?
- drill_sarge 13y agobecause of the fancy background shadow the mac screenshot thing puts around the app window?
- angeNoble 13y agoI think the percentage of photographers using macs is > 10%.
- yashg 13y agoI am sure. But my watermark software has mostly Windows users.
