MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - I took a screenshot. Now, is there a way to see it directly in my Kindle?

I don't know if this would be too awkward for anyone, but I have been making "recipe cards" by using the snipping tool to make a screen shot for some time. I just "snip" the recipes I find online and save them as a jpeg file. Then I would put them on my computer when I wanted to cook something. When I got my Kindle, I decided I would like to have on my recipe cards on it. Here is what I do:

1. Insert the jpeg image into a Writer document in OpenOffice.
2. Save the document as an HTML file.
3. Load the HTML file into Calibre and convert it to a MOBI document.

They look great on my Kindle. Is this something that someone, wanting to see a screen shot on Kindle, would be interested in or is it too awkward?
