How to Take Laptop Photos That Keyshorts Would Be Proud of

We sometimes ask our customers to send photos of their laptop or keyboard for identification/reference. Below you'll find a guide on how to take these photos so that Keyshorts team is happy and ready to go :^)

Put your laptop on a background with different color than laptop color. Take a photo with your phone or camera, holding it as parallel to laptop surface as possible. Take a look at image below to get a sense of positioning. Also, please make sure all laptop edges/sides are visible on the final photo. Photo should be big enough to see details, so 1000 pixels size is a minimum.
