update screenshot

[gravitystorm]

Our screenshot in the README is outdated - we've changed a bunch of colours recently, most noticeably the buildings. The replacement should cover the same area + zoom

I don't know how to put the file in https://raw.github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/master/preview.png

If that helps here are the files:

before

after

[pnorman]

I think you've got a different zoom on the one after - shield sizes have changed in your screenshot, but not in the stylesheet.

Best to create a pull request, this should explain how:

Let us know if anything is unclear.

I will double check but zoom levels immediately above and under looked significantly different.

What was unclear for me is how to access the folder and put a file in raw.github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/master
But master is the branch, not a folder and I guess 'raw' is not relevant.
I think I found the current file now.

I was on the correct zoom (z15) but I used Share/Image/Download and it does look slighly different than direct screenshot. I am not sure if there is a difference in "quality" or sharpness also.

z14 - direct screenshot

z15 - direct screenshot

z15 - Share/Image/Download

current file in repo

z16 - direct screenshot

[pnorman]

share image/download generates a new image, and has nothing to do with the zoom on the website you were viewing at. A screenshot is always best for this kind of example

[althio]

Approximative area:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=15/41.8729/-87.6323

• zoom 15
• direct screenshot, no share/download
• crop, no resize
• size px 852*300
• file named preview.png
  
  I will create a new PR when I have access to a computer with git installed. Otherwise feel free to take the file and create own PR.

@math1985 This issue can be closed with merge of #1279

[matthijsmelissen]

Indeed. By the way, if you include the text 'resolves #1261' in your PR description, the issue gets closed automatically when the PR is merged.

Was this screenshot taken from TileMill? Otherwise there is #1208, which changes the building colour again slightly.

No. It was a screenshot from plain map on public website.

Ok, so I guess we need to update the preview once again after the next release.
