Lots of screenshots!

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4cGZbZj-DxyekR4YUNPazFtLU0

The archive includes screenshots from various stages from both the dnf system-upgrade method and from the new GUI upgrade...

As a brief walk through we have:

DNF system-upgrade plugin:
Installing the DNF plugin
Using the download option
Accepting the GPG key
The message after all the packages downloaded
Using the reboot option
The messages at start, part way through and upgrade complete

Gnome Software GUI update:
Notification banner of new Fedora release
The banner image in Gnome Software on the upgrades tab with the download button
The progress bar part way through the package download
The notification that the upgrade is ready to be installed, with the install button visible
The polkit prompt for admin credential to start the upgrade
The final prompt to actually reboot and carry out the upgrade
The progress notification of the upgrade taking place
The notice message the upgrade complete and reboot about to happen automatically


As you can see lots to choose from for this, or the other, article depending on the detail desired ;)

I just said about an image because this way the article looks a bit
boring at first sight.
It was just that.

Hey Sylvia,

We'll definitely be sure to add in some more images (both featured image and screenshots) to liven it up a bit. I know jhogarth said he was working on screenshots, and we should be able to pull together a featured image fairly easily for this (from past releases).

It also looks like we might have an extra week to work on prettying up too, since F24 might slip another week. Thanks for the feedback! :)

            Hi Justin!

            I would say it needs an image or two.  Besides that, I find
            it perfect.




        The last I recall from the previous editorial meeting is that the
        graphical update method would not be highlighted as a primary
        supported
        update and would at best be a "this thing is coming soon" target...

        Then a later more detailed article would be published to
        coincide with
        FESCO being happy with that as a supported update method.

        We should check with FESCO on this before publishing as nirik
        was pretty
        clear I thought that we should not publish such an article until
        they
        give the go ahead.


    Hey James, I thought the decision would be to highlight this for
    upgrading as long as it was ready, tested, tried, and true. In
    either case, including this method in the article is completely
    dependent on the FESCo decision, and in the event that it is not
    ready in time for release, we will modify and strip this part of the
    article out.

    We definitely will not publish this method unless we have a clear
    answer from FESCo and can be assured that the large majority of
    users will be able to upgrade using this method successfully. For
    now, the way the article is structured, it will be easy to remove
    this method if it isn't ready.
