[MaiTai] Re: start screen

[Joshua Marinacci <joshua@marinacci.org>]

Including a screenshot of the sample within the sample is a very good idea.  
It would be useful in a lot of cases. I'm not sure where it should be stored, 
however.  Ideally it would be stored inside of the .maitai file (which is a 
zip + xml + dir structure), but that would mean you'd have to download the 
whole maitai project before you could show the screenshot.
