    When you publish a software in the Gambas farm, there is an option that
    tells if a menu entry (the desktop file) should be created or not.

    The publisher of the 'Screenshot' application just didn't check the
    option.

How does that work though Ben?
Ie. how exactly does my Blockski+ know to go into the "Games" category?
Is it because i set the Game Tag, or is it because i ran the "make installation package" and set menu categories there?

Because you choose the "Game" tag. The list of tags include all desktop file "categories" that is used by the desktop to choose in which menu the icon should be placed.
