Hi,

finally I had some time to continue the layout. i finished the chapter 
communicate and i would be happy to get some feedback.

i dont like how i put the screenshots and the screenshots arent readable at 
all.

i am not sure whether it is a good idea to use screenshots showing a big 
application like kontact. the space of the booklet is limited so it might be 
better to use only a part of the application (for instance the sidebar of 
kontact)
what do you guys think about this issue?

thanks

felix

here is the link for the booklet:
