Where do people get their screencaps from? Iv'e got a few sites but they don't always have the ones i want and most of the time they aren't HQ images so i find it difficult when trying make things with them.

I used to use screencap paradise, but the site has been down for quite a while... too bad. They had some great screencaps! Lately I've been going to www.deadinthescene.org/coppermine/index.php?cat=2There are caps for most episodes I think, although not all of them are high quality. The site also takes some time to load, which is a downer, but they've got Angel and BtVS in one place, so it's pretty good.

It's pretty easy to make your own caps. Press PrtSc for the scene you want, open photoshop, open a new file and paste the cap into the file.

I used my DVDs and played them in windows media player. I think there's a way to cap through that programme(right clicking and then something else), but I usually press PrtSc and then open up in photoshop like I said.

You can also try watching your dvds in the VLC player. It's free, and has a snapshot function. That's what I use. You can get it here- download.cnet.com/VLC-Media-Player/3000-13632_4-10267151.htmlI get my screencaps Here It's has a lot of Btvs and Angel and a lot of other shows. Awesome! Thanks for the tip!

Seconding VLC and I also use Power DVD player on my system, which will allow you to take captures. Too time consuming to have to produce my own caps all the time so I generally use Screencap Paradise but it's been out the last few days.
Going to check out the other links you've all posted.

I normally take my own caps. By watching the DVD and pausing it and then use the snipping tool to make my own caps. If not, screencap paradise have good quality caps. The best way to do it. Just bought a new computer with this program. Ever since then been in heaven.

If not, screencap paradise have good quality caps. Oh! Is screencap paradise up again? It was down for a long time. Update: Okay, yes, I just checked it and the site is back up. Hurrah! I tried that but it makes the images blured do you pause then cap? or cap as you go along? then just sharpen the image? I play it in slow motion if there's a very specific moment or expression I want to capture, and then I pause it. It's kind of time consuming depending on the size of your project, but perhaps start at screencap paradise since it's working again. -- www.screencap-paradise.com/

I use Power DVD to get mine. I bought it a really long time ago so it's an old copy for 98. Still runs on Vista though. My uncle also told me about some programs you can get online but I don't remember the names. I'd go to google or yahoo and search for programs+"screen capture" If you have a way to watch DVDs on your computer you can get captures with that print screen button that look pretty decent but it's a pain in the butt. Just pause the dvd, hit print screen and paste it into Paint.
