Best.
While this is true, almost every country has ISO 8601 as an official standard (even if people don't use it in everyday writing). I was also refering specifically to the formating ddmmyyyy, when this order is used there is usually some kind of separator, and often days and months less than 10 are written out with only one digit. The screenshot format uses exactly that format; for example 21122013_0319, if you look at the details for each region at that wikipedia page, you will not see a single one using this particular format. yyyymmdd and yyyy-mm-dd are both accepted within ISO 8601.
