You do have to know whether your screen is high-DPI though. 16:59:46 For example, my MacBook is a 'retina' one, so when I take a screenshot it is double the resolution. I.e. my browser reports 1280px wide, but a screenshot of that comes out at 2560! 16:59:47 I also have a standard-res monitor I plug into as a second screen at work, so screenshots on that are 'normal' sized... 17:00:43 I would use the browser to add a 3px border around the image, and see if it is the same or bigger. I would then screenshot it and expand the image if I'm not sure.
