I would still go with including a screenshot. It gives visitors a much
clearer visual indication of what "GNOME 2.8" is (i.e. a desktop
environment).

Personally, I would try and steer clear of using phrases like "amazingly
beautiful" because they are highly opinion based. I'm sure we don't want
to sound like we're blowing our own trumpet too much! ;-)
