Before we get started, some information... (8b0000) standard, looking fair on white, but too transparent on dark-gray
In Your opening post is quite hard to see on cheap LCD displays
let's tune it up a little:

Hello everyone, I'm driving on the VBSR 1.1 (Freeware) route last days with the 18 201 DR Series from Stavanger to Trontheim in Norway.
The total length of my journey was: 1180 km.

Gothic looks cool

This is offered to me as a selection here in the forum.

I'd advice to use distinctive stlie(s) - which are fonts, drawing, colors, sizes - for distinction feature - author in Your intro post too.

I have revised my "travel report" a bit and will incorporate the tips I received into my next screenshot trip as best I can. I'm still testing around with the farcodes hehe.

You probably have seen prospects for tourists:
Text styles are add to photos - for increase overall attraction.
So - with screenshots threads: far not so many replies, as many of us - authors - would get, but nice design may increase good impression of readers.

I'm glad, You've extended Your "operative toolset" to present such reviews in more nice way.
Good job!
This will be useful in many other cases as well. Not only on this site.

P.S.
I'd advice to use distinctive stlie(s), which are fonts, drawing, colors, sizes - for distinction feature - author in Your intro post too:

Edit
I was so "mean" and posted your suggestion in my introduction.
I am very careful with the pictures/photos/drawing, because of the copyright laws. In another forum where I used to be, the forum owner at the time received a letter from a lawyer.
We had 1 week to delete the pictures and drawings.

I would have liked to install coats of arms like this one https://commons.wiki...e:Oslo_komm.svg , but I didn't do it because of the following text:

This official Norwegian coat of arms is ineligible for copyright, but its usage is restricted according to Norwegian penal law, independent of the copyright status of the depiction shown here.
This image shows a flag, a coat of arms, a seal or some other official insignia. The use of such symbols is restricted in many countries. These restrictions are independent of the copyright status.

Glad to help.
More important - You see the princip.
While pictures are by Your own - I believe - there's no reasons to be worried... Or don't I know something important?

Use the link instead - when You do have some doubts - like below:
Coat of Arms of Oslo

Don't worry, the screenshots are mine, my reference is to pictures or the example of the coat of arms of Oslo. With the coats of arms, for example, I would have liked to have made this article a little more extensive.

...and I really like, You've added frames to them - really nice feature! and rare seen over here.

If you mean the screenshots, that's another idea from my earlier forum days. I'm surprised you're just noticing them now. And yes, I'm actually a friend of darker colors as you've already seen.

Not "just now" - I only have decided to mention it in addition - as a tribute to Your posting-style's originality.
