For KDE.News ("the Dot") and other websites
In general, people appreciate a little visual stimulation when reading an article. Adding just an abstract artwork to a text-only article makes a huge difference.
Abstract artwork is what displays on the side of the first paragraph of an article. Have a look at Konqi's Wikipedia page and you'll get the idea.
Normally, you can use screenshots, photos, sometimes software icons for that purpose. But there are times when nothing at hand can be used for your topic, and that is when Konqi and other KDE dragons come to rescue!
For Dot, you can use the "edit summary" button to ensure not only the first text paragraph but also the image can be displayed on the front page.
