Placing Screen Grabs in an iMac Vector?

$

I have a layered vector drawing of an iMac. Sometimes I want to take a screen grab of a website I have created and place it within this vector to put on my website as part of my portfolio.

 

To do this I use the Apple screen grab command, then I shrink this very large png file and place it on the appropriate layer on my iMac vector illustration. The trouble is it looks terrible once it has been shrunk down to size. You can not read the text or the url properly...

 

I see websites all the time that have this type of thing and the image looks great. Any tips on how to do this?

 

FYI I'm working off a 27 inch mac screen, so my captured png image is always huge. The quality is getting lost when I reduce the size of the placed image in Illustrator.

 

This is what mine look like:

Any advice would be great,

 

Many thanks,

 

Ben
