| Screencapping question |

Question on screencapping (and yes I've taken a look thru some of the memories). I'm using Mac OS X 10.5 and I'm trying ot make animated gifs. I downloaded VLC as it seems to be the recommended screen-capping program for Macs.
Question: How do I automatically screencap a particular clip within a video? (Lets say a 30s clip out of an episode of The Office?) Apparently, only older versions of VLC have this capability?
If there is another program that recommended over VLC, I'm definitely willing to try it out!
Any help would be great,
Thanks!

I was wondering if anyone can help me with this screen cap:

No matter what I do, because it's so low quality, I can't seem to lighten it up & make it look somewhat decent. Any idea how I can do this without loosing all the detail & without everything blending in?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Can't seem to find any tags to put this with.. so I think this one works, sorry!
Also, I use Photoshop CS3

| Animation is too slow |

I'm planning on making an icon using a screencap, which can be found below the cut. You may notice that the animation is very slow. I use VirtualDub, CamStudio, and ImageReady. It's speed is fine when played in vDub, but when opened in ImageReady it's deathly slow, and I can't seem to understand why.
Any ideas on what I can do so the speed isn't like that? I screencap at 40 frames per second, and the time between each frame in ImageReady is set to 0sec. I've tried many things, and I have a headache from all this D:
Any help is very very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Solved! Thank you all so much (:

Hey everyone (: I really don't know how to make an animation with screencaps. I want to make a mini-movie icon. Every tutorial I can find is for Photoshop or something else, but I'm using Gimp.
Does anyone know a tutorial for that?
I'm glad about every help!

I have no idea if this is even possible, but I was just wondering if you could bring back unexpectedly-closed files on PSCS3.
I was working on these icons [which took me FOREVER], then my laptop shuts down unexpectedly. Is there a way to bring these files back??
Any suggestions would be amazing. TIA!

| PSPX2 issues |
[10 Nov 2009|09:42pm] |
Hi, everyone. (: Longtime lurker, first time poster. Okay. Soooo. I've been using brushes for a long time in PSPX2, and it's always worked very well for me, until now. It won't let me apply the brush unless the move it around, and even then it gives me strange results, like this:

(brush by meleada) When the brush kind of swirls around the canvas, I suppose you'd call it, as opposed to just applying straight on? I've checked brush variance and rotation and step and I don't know, I'm still not that great with Paint Shop Pro. Can anyone help me fix this problem? And much thanks in advance. (:

| Loading files into stack |
[09 Nov 2009|03:41pm] |
The problem: I know how to make animated icons and never had any problems with that,but I've never done animations from cinema scenes,you know,like this one,so I've found this outstanding tutorial. It says wordy this: "Now that you have your images capped, open up Photoshop and FILE>SCRIPTS>LOAD FILES INTO STACK"
I've found this option in my Photoshop CS3 extended,but when I click on this function, Photoshop just failed down!! I've tried that 8 times,and every time it's just failed,without any error message. So,any thoughts what's that and how to solve that problem?

I've had this problem for several weeks now and I'm getting really pissed. My photoshop (elements 5) puts HUGE spaces between everyletter like this instead of . So everytime I'm adding some text I have to move every letter by hand to make it look smart. I've tryed to reinstall it several times.
Ideas?

| Paint Shop Pro Error |
[08 Nov 2009|08:14pm] |
Hi. I had to restore my computer a little over a month ago - I reinstalled Corel Paint Shop Pro XI which I had used all the time before and this never used to happen. I think it mostly happens when I drag a picture onto the program, but I think it has came up at other times while I was using the program. It comes up and freezes up Paint Shop and I can't do anything with it. It says:
Runtime Error! Program: ...|Paint Shop Pro Photo XI\Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo.exe R6025 - pure virtual function call
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
