Whats the best method for making high quality screen shots? also is there anthing to do in photoshop to make the picture look better after you take it?

Use Ifran View. Play the movie in Ifran View, pause it at the right place. Do PrtScr, paste. Then do sharpen and just colours. I have just done 400 by hand this way and they come out really well.

I take a cap in Frame-Shots (former SnatchIt) and then process in Photoshop.

Sharpen, color and brightness adjust...play around with things to see what works.

Good question ...

I am using Windows Movie Maker for wmv screenshots

I am using frame-shots too and I like it. It's fast and I just adjust them with the program.

In most cases, it does do the trick without needing to open them in Photoshop.

Having good quality wmv files probably helps

We use it and photoshop the thumb after.

Hunter_ST · 06-28-2005, 03:25 PM

Yeah it helps to PS the thumbs afterwards...

Seems to work well....

bump for an awesome and very informative thread; not many around here!

i've always used "Snag-It", very easy to use and an awesome way to take pics of IM convos as well.

I've been using snag-it or windows movie maker, it works for me. Then Photoshop if it needs sharpening etc
