Adding images might lead to confusion because many elements look different on various sites on the network. If this is done then please don't add images from SO to avoid confusion between normal mode/dark mode/high contrast mode, and similar for themed sites. Maybe asking everybody to take screenshots from Meta.SE only would be best for consistency, with the possible downside that people cannot add an image of something they don't have enough reputation for on Meta.

@Marijn If someone doesn't have the rep on this site to get the screen shot there are plenty of people that can get it for them.
