    Isn’t a screenshot also a picture? It can literally be the same file extension too.

    Why didn’t OP just take a screenshot? Why go through the effort of taking a photo with their phone to then transfer it to a PC?

        It’s not a screenshot. It’s a photo of the screen.

          Yeah, no shit. They were asking if the reason it’s a photo of the screen might be that you can’t take a screenshot of the login screen (which I have no idea the answer to)

            Well you being a dick about it certainly helped clarify it. Thanks

      Good point. If this community wasn’t for screenshots, it would be called “photographs”. All images, even memes, should be allowed here.
