 * How do i get my plugins screenshots to show up on the screenshots tab of the 
   plugins page at [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-sql-backup/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-sql-backup/)?
   i’ve already included a “screenshot-1.png” in the svn trunk of the plugin.

 * You have to put the calls into your readme.
 * See [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/readme.txt](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/readme.txt)
   for an example 🙂

 * Nope. 🙂

 * Missing the screenshots section, is all. If you JUST changed it, the cache can
   take a while.

 * I just re-committed my changes, the screenshot section I added last time for 
   some reason didn’t show up in the svn version.

 * First change it to this:
 * > == Screenshots ==
   > 1. Here’s a screenshot of it in action
 * I don’t KNOW if the : at the end matters, but let’s remove it.
 * Secondly, like I said, if you JUST changed it, the cache can take a while. Finish
   up the rest of your plugin while it sorts itself out.

 * It should, unless there’s something else wrong in your readme.txt file – What’d
   you use to edit it?

 * You have the Stable Tag as 2.0. So only the readme.txt and files in the /tags/
   2.0 directory actually matters. And it lacks the screenshot file.

 * It’s still not going to work, it says something is wrong with your PNG file.
 * Basically, you named it as a PNG, but it’s actually saved as a JPG file. So it
   can’t load the image properly. Save it as the right filetype.
